Interesting discussion. I have run all of my Toyota's on a 10k change schedule and I got 212,000 miles out of my 87 4Runner and so far my 1991 4x4 Extended Cab has about 132,000 without any oil related problems.
I truely believe that a good engine will not pollute the oil as quickly has a loosely/poor tolerance motor.
This is just my 2 cents. I run regular Castrol 10w-30 and change it every 10k. I don't really believe that I am risking anything with a good Toyota motor. Past history with my other vehicles has proven it to me.
I do believe that we are wasting resources with 3k changes.
