Sorry, I know this has sort of been asked but not exactly the same. Wondering if anyone here has the same car or better knowledge.

I get a full synthetic oil change in my 2005 Toyota 4Runner v6 2wd. Driven 195,000 miles.

How often do I really need to change the oil. I usually go every 5000 miles, but could I go longer or would this damage the car?
