I do a lot of city driving and I change every 3500. If you do mostly highway, 5K should be fine. I only use Mobil 1 0W40. For filter, I use only OEM, Mobil 1 or K&N. When I use local place for oil change, I just buy a M1 myself and hand it to them.
Don't cheap out on the filter. Purolator and Fram are JUNKS. They might have been good at one point but not anymore. You pay $30K for the car! Don't use junk parts!!
BTW, if you do decide to buy a K&N or Mobil 1 filter at your favor local store. Open up the box and check it to make sure it contains a K&N or M1 filter. Last time I went to the local AutoBran store, I picked up an M1 filter but the weight feel much lighter then it should be. I opened up the box and some scumbag replaced it with some junk Fram filter in there. Had I not noticed I would be totally out of luck. So CHECK before you pay for the thing!
