Here is the latest UOA on the 2011 Tundra with the 5.7L engine. I did NOT change the oil after this sample was taken. I will be taking this oil to 10K miles and will perform another UOA then.
2011 Tundra, Amsoil 0W-20 (ASM), 5,067 miles

Very true, I love your data BTanchors, but I would put money you could use any major "syn" on sale and get equal results. I would even stretch it to say MS5k or PYB could do that for 5k OCI's. Of course it is your baby and you are gonna use what you want just as I do.

rcbc96,
Interesting. I also have a 2010 Camry running the same oil as well. I haven't yet had a UOA performed on this vehicle, but will eventually.

Very nice wear pattern. I hope my 3UR-FBE looks as good when I start trending. Thanks for posting your data.
Check out my uoa. This was my first amsoil oil change on the camry.

The Amsoil 0w-20 consistently shows better shear stability than other 0w-20 offerings. I like that!
rcbc96, Thanks for the link to your UOA. I will save it and compare with mine when it finally gets done.
chubbs1 and buster - I believe you are right - On many of these Toyota engines, you could probably use Molasses and have a good UOA! I think the data is still useful, though, especially in the event I acquire a vehicle that isn't so easy on oil. On the other hand, I am pretty happy with all the Toyota's I have had, and will probably stick with them.
