I purchased a set of battery adapters off eBay for only a few dollars each. Now I can use my Bosch 18 volt batteries in every other brand of tool, so I can choose whatever tool I like irrespective of the brand.

I'd wager that you'd achieve a similar level of "extra" performance by simply ensuring your tires are correctly inflated.

Buys EV for maximum virtue signalling impact, then sells same EV for maximum virtue signalling impact.

You're experiencing the results of Toyota's foray into low tension piston rings. Do a piston soak with kero.

Those lucky Canadians aren't afflicted with low quality oil.

It sounds like a heat problem. I'd fit an auxiliary ATF cooler.

I use a chinagraph and simply write the service date and current odo reading on the radiator support panel.

No, it doesn't. It does have a lower energy density though.

Heat kills ATF and transmissions. Fit a decent ATF cooler and you'll probably never need to change the ATF again:

I did it before I starting posting here. I'm not going to remove the engine parts again just for a photo.

It sounds like the dreaded VTEC cam gear rattle. Thicker oil, whether due to a different grade or colder environmental temperatures, will make it worse.

I used Castrol DX 5w40 diesel oil (it's SN rated) in my gas engine to clean it. Inside of my engine looked like new when I removed the valve cover, timing cover and sump.

ATM, I use the receiver as a pre-amp. It's connected to a couple of pro-grade amps. So, I've got about 10,000 watts @ 8 ohms spread over the 4 channels (Dolby pro-logic FTW).

The Yamaha RX-A2A meets all of your requirements and will sound great. Disclaimer: I'm still using the Yamaha RXV-890 that I purchased in 1995, so I might be biased towards Yamaha AV products.

I recently purchased an M7 digital tire inflator. It makes pumping my tires to 34psi a very quick and simple task. Also, it takes a watch battery, so there's less chance of battery leakage ruining it compared to others that use AAA batteries.

I'd use the Valvoline simply because I don't rate Mobil products. I don't know why, but I just don't like that brand.

I'd use it as a regular oil because, at least in your case., it seems your regular oil caused poor fuel economy and lead to excessive oil consumption.

If you want some reasonably priced Australian made oil for your Prado, don't overlook Gulf Western. Their products are excellent: https://www.gulfwestern.com.au/product/euro-energy-5w-30/
