Oil choice for full time fishing guide?

[OilUzer]

his oci is very good but with 6-7K towing and summer temperatures in AR, it may not be a bad idea to bump it up to a good xW30.

10w30 syn every 5k miles FTW (any major brand)

 

[dlundblad]

Toyota uses 0w-20 because the tundra hasn’t had tech updates since 2007. They are desperate to help its worst in class gas mileage.

It does.

Read the last sentence.

I missed it.

 

[Greasymechtech]

I would use a 5w30 synth.

Worry but the drivetrain

All those oil changes and grade arguments means little when he drops a diff or trans

I missed it.

I forgive you this time

Chevron Supreme 5w30
Why? Somebody here will like it.

Me! It's a great oil, and inexpensive, too!

If it was my Tundra and I towed often with it, I'd run CS 5W-30 or Kirkland Syn 5W-30 as they are inexpensive choices with outstanding add packs. A slightly costlier upgrade would be either Mobil 1 0W-40 or Castrol 0w-40.

Oil preference freedom is a wonderful thing! We still have that freedom... for now.
