Ive noticed people posting from places like the Middle East that they use 20W-50. Why I don't know. MAybe Toyota does?

Phoenix gets to 120 in the summer. Stop and go driving with the AC on under those conditions would be about the most extreme operating conditions I could imagine. I definitely would want some input from people with professional experience about what oil to use.

I have serious doubts 5W-30 is going to cut it.
