Is there such an oil as this for a 2023 Yukon with the 3.0 duramax engine? Also, for primarily usage for in town driving, should the oil change interval be quite a bit more often?

Factory says 7500 miles, Fanatics change it at 3-3500, most people 5-6K, Oil properties based on actual testing say it can go farther than 7500 miles with no loss of protection.
or 12 months .. but if you don't drive it 6-7000 miles in a year, probably should have bought a 5.3/6.2.....This thing is built for racking up miles....

If you have an Oil Life Monitor, change it before it gets under 33%.
... if you don't drive it 6-7000 miles in a year, probably should have bought a 5.3L / 6.2L gasser ...
Um, yes, this. To which I'll add:
If you start it and then shut it off in under 30min, probably should have bought a gasser.
Like Stbentoak said, diesels are for racking up miles ...

Years ago, I called Mobil 1 and asked them why they stopped printing the 24,000 mile oil change? They said basically we got our hands slapped by the car industries.
Being that said, I changed my oil in my 318 Dodge Ram 18k - 25k, sold it with 327k on it.
