    Looks like this is some really good stuff. Made from natural gas not crude oil. Hard to find though.

    Color matched door handles, Weathertech floor liners, bed mat, Durafit seat covers, tailgate clamp, 2016 TRD Sport 17" wheels with Yokohama Geolander AT tires , Toyota exhaust tip, Toyota/Yakima bike rail mount, Toyota wheel locks, Toyota hitch cover, Redline hood struts, unifilter on air pump.
    Ferraris use Shell oil, so it's probably ok for Toyotas.

    I see Shell is developing 0w16 and 0w8. The helix ultra is supposed to out perform all other syn.

    Just found out, helix ultra 0w20 only available in Europe. Mazda is getting ready to start using 0w16.
