Leave it in. That oil likely has tons of life left on it, and 700 miles of straight highway driving will hardly make a dent.
Another should I change my oil thread

Alright. If the MM tell me to change the oil before I leave then I'll do it. Other wise it will probably be ready when I get back.
Now we just have to discuss Castrol Edge black bottle, PP, or franken brew Mobil 1

700 miles isn't that much.
As of today the current fill has been in the sump for 6 weeks and 3000 miles with the MM at 50%. The trip Iowa is right at 1 month away and the MM is at 50% now, so I am assuming that the MM will be at 15 or 20% right when I am on the trip.
3000 miles and 50% and you're sweating 700 more? Dude, change it when you get back!!

Whatever make you sleep better at night
The motor won't care either way ...
I leave tomorrow morning the the MM is still at 40%. I really figured it would have dropped more by now. I'll worry about it when I get home.
