Synthetic Oil on 2007 or not?

I have been searching the forum about this question.
They told me to look up in the second gen for an answer.
Should i go with synthetic oil,or should i stay with Toyota Dealer regular oil?
My Tac has now 102,000 kilometers,and i do about ten thousand kilometers a year max.
Some say that it is not a good thing,others say the oposite.
I am in Ontario,Canada,and our winter is just around the corner with lots of cold times as minus 25 and sometimes colder then that..
Thanks
Regards

The factory Toyota oil is a full synthetic. If I remember correctly it's made by Mobil to Toyotas requested spec for their engines. Very close product to the off the shelf Mobil One synthetic.

 

Hi Brent
Thanks for the information.
I have to do this oil change soon at my Dealer.
I will ask them for sure.
Nice to know,that there oil is very good..

 

Go synthetic as soon as you can. Use a synthetic OF also.

I started synthetic on my 07 Taco at about 30K miles (48KM) and I haven't looked back. Use Mobil 1 Extended oil and oil filter; change oil at 10K. I now have 134K.

 

That applies to the 2.7 liter 4 cyl. engine - 0W-20 and only available at this time in synthetic form. The 4.0 liter 6 cyl. - uses 5W-30. I've yet to find doc that says the factory uses 5W-30 synthetic in the 4.0 liter engine.

OP shows he's running a V6.
