No problem, it sounds like you are well prepared. I wanted to go 0w20 but found PP going for about $4.60 qt and got 4 of them, plus I topped of the other .4 qt with some gtx I had laying around....

Regarding MPG, I joined a hypermiling forum yesterday wich has some good ideas on increasing it (cleanmpg.com) They recommend upping the tire pressure to the max pressure listed on the tire wall (which is 51psi on my goodyear eagle) I think that's a bit high but I did take them all up to 40psi.

The thing now rolls like it's a runaway train. I can coast in Neutral a whole bunch and I bet it will make a big increase in MPG. I also have a TRD drop in air filter on order from the dealer. My next purchase will prolly be a ScanGauge.
