Toyota is recommending every 10k miles these days with the recommended weight.

As long as you've run through the break-in (15,000 mi), you should be good for up to 10k.

I have 145k on my tacoma and run full 0w-20 synthetic. I change every 10k with no problems, just make sure you're running a good filter as well. Toyota actually makes very good oil filters for a good price, don't buy the garbage filters from autozone.

10k easily.

You could probably go over in a Toyota, but that's up to you.

Wow, you are really something.

On topic... looks like 10k is the popular answer.

That looks like Kate Beckinsale, not Summer Glau.

Honestly it depends on how you drive the vehicle. If all you do is stop and go driving and short trips then you need to change oil more often than recommended. If the majority of your driving is interstate and over 30 minutes then your oil will last longer than recommended. It all depends on your conditions.

Any reason you used the synthetic over conventional?
