I wouldn't bother changing. It's a great car and it's cheap for preventative maintenece. A Motorcraft filter and 6 qts of Mobil 1 should only be $30, not $40. And we've seen a couple oil analyses that show 5000-7500 miles being okay on Mobil 1. Hopefully I will confirm this soon. Save yourself some time and money by going to 6000 miles or 7500 miles on Mobil 1. It'll be at least as good as more frequent changes with regular oil, and a lot less time and effort.
