20 years ago the popularity/reliability of synthetics was like finding today a blind men lost in the woods for a couple of years and telling him we have a black president...to mascaraed the value retailers claimed 15.000 miles intervals......we now now it was "trickle down economics"... not a car maker trusted synthetics back them (even today) Not looking to upset the wikipedia guys but as of today synthetic is good enough for SC's

"viscosity" is what I would like to know toyota SC oil had/have
