    So my wife thought she was doing a good deed in getting me some oil to change the oil in my 15 Tacoma. It has 21000 miles on it. She got the brand of oil correct and the correct filter BUT she bought the High Mileage oil. UGH!!!!!!! My question is can i use the high mileage oil or should i return it and get the right stuff?

    thanks in advance for the help and info

    As long as it's the same weight (5W-30), you'll be fine.
