What brand/grade oil do you use?
Trying to see what kind of oil everyone uses, so post the brand, grade, filter type and the mileage on your truck.
Toyota oil filter
Pennzoil oil 5w-30

I have an idea...why don't you make a poll! That way we can see if the last poll was valid.Here's the link:

Mobil 1 5w-30 and just regular fram filters. From my experiences and from the mechanics I work with tell me filters really dont matter much as long as you changed them often as your oil.

Was that a dealer mechanic that told you that?
If that is true, why to the have filters in the first place? Maybe just do away with the filter and change your oil more...
