In your case with your driving style and trip lengths not much. Because I can bet that it was done everytime on time. Bore wear, lifters wear, cam wear, all measured at a lab, maybe something.

With my short trips, under 10 miles, a more frequent interval is always good insurance.

To be sure, see Blackstone labs for oil testing.
