Last uoa i can find for 5w20 was back in 2013!

This is the most recent VOA that I can find.

Upper limits of Phos and Zinc with a nice shot of moly and titanium, whats not to like.

I've used Mobil 1 5W-30 full synthetic in my 2005 Tacoma for the last 50K miles. Last oil change I went with Valvoline Advanced 5W-30. The engine does seem a bit quieter and seems to idle a bit smoother. Maybe a bit less friction (?). Sit a cell phone on the passenger seat and look at the reflection on the screen to get an indication of the level of engine vibrations at idle.
