I have a 98 Toyota Tacoma with 211,000 miles. I have run various weights of Amsoil synthetic for the entire time.. I work close to home now and only drive 3 miles to work with a few longer trips, for a total of 5000 miles per year. I am wondering if Amsoil is needed for such low mileage use, and, also wonder if my short tripping is loading the oil with fuel and moisture. I want to use a cheaper synthetic and change the oil and filter every six months, to dump any moisture and fuel buildup. I realize that I will be dumping oil that is probably still good. Possible candidates for the new oil are Mobil 1 5w 30 EP, Mobil 1 0w 30 AFE, or any other synthetic available at my friendly local Walmart
What oil do you suggest? Thanks in advance for any advice.
I realize that I am real OCD about a truck with a blue book value of about a grand. This truck is the first vehicle I kept over 5 years, because I really like it. I just want my old Semper Fidelis truck to last as long as possible
