Maintenance schedule?

Not able to find a guide for maintenance schedule- Is it just trust the oil change meter on the dash and then take it in?

Maintenance section starting at page 316 of the manual. Page 320 is the literal schedule.

Should have seen that, follow up question- I don't do too many miles- this is a weekend car.
Do they have any requirement like 7500 miles or 6 months (or any time period like that)
Most of my other cars did have something like that.

Since it's a weekend car you could extend out the time in-between tune ups, I wouldn't go past 12 months but I'll let others chime in with more knowledge. Keep in mind your first two free oil changes are within 2 year/24k miles. The oil life % built-in to the car is pretty good to monitor as well.

Synthetic oils are really good nowadays. After your first initial break in oil change you should go 1 year or 10k miles. Which every comes first. These cars have a very large oil capacity.
