I used Amsoil 5w30 every 5k miles I pay about 10 dollars a quart and a K&N performance oil filter which is around 10ish as well.

Dang, Jason, you're throwing money down the drain (assuming that's the 25k/1 year Amsoil).



As for me, I use 0w-20 Amsoil and Napa Gold (made by WIX) oil filter. Coming up on my yearly change. hahaha.

Last week I paid about $25 for a toyota oil filter & 5 qts of mobil1 5w30. In 5,000miles I'll switch out the filter, and go another 5k before doing an oil change... So... total cost for 10,000 miles is around $28.xx

Mobil 1 AFE 0W-30 ($21 for 5 qt jug at wally world) and $8 Fram Xtended guard filter (the "good" fram) every 5k miles due to lots of stop n go and short trips. Going to do an oil analysis next change to see how much further I can safely take the oil. Engine seems to vibrate less at idle once I stopped going to the dealership (and using their toyota oil) and doing my own oil change with Mobil 1.
