Switch to synthetic at 110k?
I have a 96 4runner with 110 thousand miles on it. Is there any benefit to switching to sythetic for a vehicle with that many miles on it already? I got the truck through a dealer on ebay at 106k miles, so I have no idea what the service history behind it is other than that it was using natural oil and the vehicle drives like it's brand new.
Thanks

I always think it beneficial to switch to synthetic. Just do a search and youll find tons of threads on here about synthetic switch.
