So it was time for my second oil change today so I took her up to the Toyota dealership by my house. They took the car in and were very friendly, half of the employees went out there to look at the car. I received many compliments and was out of there in under 20 minutes. Grand total with tax was $29.52. So if anyone wants to save $100 on your next oil change, go to Toyota.

my brother is a machenic at a Toyota dealership around us. From what I know, for $29.52 you aren't getting synthetic oil. You want to use synthetic oil in our car.

The owner's manual states "use 91 or higher octane".
The owner's manual does not state "you must use synthetic oil".
Personally, I'll run synthetic. But for 5000 mile change intervals as spec'd in the maintenance supplement, it's certainly not necessary. And brand name 5w30 conventional will easily hold up for 5000 miles... get an oil analysis if you don't believe me.
