Synthetics may be a bit better for a high performance engines but are a waste of money for an econo engine like in the Yaris....IMO.
So getting 15k miles out of a single filter and round of AMSOIL synth is waste of money? On the contrary it will take some smokin good deals to get a better bang for the buck, but I digress seeing as how there are too many oil threads on this forum and others.
