I noticed that as well but if you check in the second column, first paragraph it says that if I use another viscosity, my next oil change MUST be 0W-20. For that I rather just use 0W-20 all the time.

Gotcha. Thanks again. I'm leaning towards using M1 EP. I called my local Toyota dealer to verify what was in their 55 gallon drums and they told me I'm better off just getting M1 off the shelf in my scenario, even if they are the ones that replace it for me.

I'm glad I'm not the only one struggling with this lol. I appreciate the insight!

You hit the nail on the head for sure! What should be a simple thing such as selecting oil has been very stress inducing for me these last two nights lmao

Thank you. This is actually very helpful. Would you say that M1 EP would fall under the thick category?

I have no intention of even trying. 5K OCIs is what I do. Nothing more

Thank you. Is there any significant difference between EP and AFE? As I said earlier I definitely won't get the 20,000 mile benefit of EP, but if is a better formulation, I don't mind spending the extra $2-3 for it. Thanks in advance!

Well I'm not worried about the records because I save all of my purchase receipts for oils and filters and I also forgot to mention this, but I buy the oil and take to the dealer to have them replace it. They only charge me $24.95 for the labor. So I get a record that way as well.

Good morning everyone, So I know this can be a somewhat controversial topic and is often a topic filled with a lot of bias, and very little facts, but I am pulling out my own hair trying to figure out which 0W-20 oil to use in my car. So in my last oil change at 4500 miles I used Pennzoil Ultra...
