My new Toyota calls for full synthetic in 0W-16. Let's just say it ain't very common.
Change every 10K. And I thought 0W-20 was hard to find. Bet that oil is almost impossible to find. Bet the Toyota house has it. Sure they do. Considering every thing 80$ and change is a good deal for me 8 quarts full synthetic, filter, rotate tires and adjust air pressure and check all fluids. I am happy to kill an hour at dealer and not have to screw with it. A lot of dealer pricing is good IF you can find a GOOD service dept. This^^^^^ My Tundra is near 100,000 miles and dealer service is the way to go. I'll drive to a different town to go to a Great Service Dept., prices are very compatible for all they do.

When I had a gasser, I used the extended life Mobil 1 synthetic. Could usually find it on sale at Walmart. Oil change and filter usually cost me about $30-40. Changed it every 5k-7k

I'm more worried about the filter than the oil. I try not to go over 7500k with synthetic.

This^^^^^
My Tundra is near 100,000 miles and dealer service is the way to go.
I'll drive to a different town to go to a Great Service Dept., prices are very compatible for all they do.
Too bad I can't trust my dealer to do anything right. Last time they changed it they over torqued the filter cap by 100+ ft lbs and left bolts out of skid plate. I just do it myself with a fumoto valve and drain hose for filter it is not bad at all. Mobile one has a nice rebate through end of month.
