I did a quick look at Meijers and they didn't even have that weight in any brand.

Is it that rare?...or are they just 'out of stock'?

0-20 isn't rare at all. It's just not cheap depending on the brand. I use Rural King 0w20 in my daughter's Mazda. Walmart has 0w20 Supertech. Then you can jump into the brand names and pay a bunch more.

No reason not to use Mobil1. I just figure 0w20 full synthetic is 0w20 full synthetic. And the rural king stuff is made by Warren I think.

And Toyota's manual recommends "Toyota" oil. I asked the dealer "When did Toyota get into the refining business?" I figure as long as the oil meets the specs, I don't care what brand it is. I've been running whatever is cheapest in my beater Taurus X and that thing has over 180K on the odometer.
