Just to be clear, I personally would not use AMSOIL products in my personal vehicles. Out of all of the stuff they sell, the only one that meets Toyota's specifications for oil (API certification and viscosity) is the XL-7500 10W-30. To keep the Toyota warranty valid, you have to follow their oil and filter change intervals and not the extended ones that AMSOIL suggests. If other name brand petroleum or synthetic oils will do the same thing for way less money, then I'd stick with a name brand oil that is available at stores rather than having to seek out an AMSOIL dealer. I don't have the time or inclination to do all that research to use a questionable product when the alternatives are widely known to be effective in both performance and at less cost. Ray O
