Over 31,000 of those miles has been in just the last 14 months since we bought it. One of our favorite cars we’ve had. ‘18 RAV4 XLE AWD

Thanks! I’ll stick with my 30’s, especially if the owners manuals for the same engine in other countries say you can use up to some 40 weights.

This was the first change I’d done on it. Assuming whatever was in it was bulk from Toyota dealer we purchased it from.

That was a 5-month run: October - March. We had a few trips mixed in there, plus my wife drives it between Indy and Louisville and back 3-4 times a month.

First UOA from a somewhat new to us RAV4 (purchased July 2022). Pleased with the results. I’ve got Amsoil SS 5w30 in it now and I’ll send it in to compare with the M1 this summer. The oil filter I used was a Toyota OEM off the shelf from Walmart.

Yesterday we picked up a 2018 RAV4 XLE AWD with 68k miles to replace our aging ‘05 Town & Country. Spent most of the night just learning the info center in this thing. 😳 Anyone with a similar model year have any advice or heads-up? It’ll get Amsoil SS in it, but do any of you stray off the 0w20...

2005 Chrysler Town & Country 3.8L, 201,777 miles on unit, 7,092 miles and 21.6 mpg on OCI: Out: Phillips 66 Shield Choice 10w30, Fram EG PH016 In: Amsoil OE 10w30, Mopar filter M-090

1 case of Amsoil SS 5w30 for my Yukon and Wife’s Corolla, and 5 qts 10w30 OE for my Town & Country, as well as a few qts ATF. The 5w30 was all of 8 days old when I got it the other day.

For those of you on Facebook, a ton o’pics from IFD:

Guessing you knew some of my neighbors/friends who grew up & stayed here. Shawn Zore? Jeff Matthews?

Correct…and thanks to who edited my post! 👍🏼

Hearing this was a 1.2 million square foot facility with 1,000 employees. All accounted for and safe.

Other than the occasional fire we see at one of the junkyards over by Tibbs that gives off a good burning tire show for an hour, I’ve never seen anything like this around here either! (53 as well…Warren Central ‘86).

Our fire department from here in the Town of Speedway was called in to assist. They posted a little while ago they’re battling low water pressure.
