Default my first oil change

I just changed the oil after 3,430 miles because the nissan dealer I got it from had a carquest oil filter on it and I really did not know what oil they put in it. I went under the car and took the drain plug out and reached up to unscrew the filter and it was finger loose or finger tight. I am glad I didn't wait to change it at 5K.
Thanks,
