Probably a 0W40 isn't recommended because you'd lose one percent in hwy mpg and it would screw up GM's CAFE average. Also, decent 0W40 will only be available in synthetic.
If you're thinking of extending your drain interval, spend $20 and get a used oil analysis (UOA) performed at the end of your 3k interval. The report will tell you how much life your oil had left in it.
Generally, North Americans (and North American cars) expect to use a lower quality oil and change it more often compared to Europeans.
