    I've used both, didn't notice a difference. Ran each oil for about 30,000 miles. Drained out clean.

    No, my truck is a year old and only has 5700 miles on it. I just want something synthetic in there.

    Too few to list.
    I've only used Redline MT90 in Toyota manual transmission and have had great results. Shifts are smoother. I believe Redline also recommend just the MT90 for manual trans for Toyota.

    Nothing is very far in Victoria so if you put 9000 miles on your car it's considered high.

    I have 3000 miles on mine in first 6 months of ownership.

    (I'm in Victoria too)

    I put a lot more mileage on in the summer and fall, weekends up island in the summer and hunting in the northeast in the fall.

    We go up island for camping as well. Rebecca Spit on Quadra Island, Salt Spring - which doesn't count for mileage.
    Buttle Lake in Stratchona park, Cumberland for mountain biking.

    No hunting although it's something I'm starting to think about more often then not.
