Fuel filter life

I was just curious when do you guys change your fuel filters. I have been changing mine every 10,000 miles, but i also run the red stuff. Could i go longer?

i change my oil and fuel both at 7K. i run 99% interstate and pull 5-8K 15% of the time. Nothing is worse than a plugged filter. buy them in bulk off eBay and change frequently. we have terrible diesel here too... cut an old one open sometime!
