maybe.... my local Toyota dealership uses Mobile 1 for synthetic. I'd rather they used TGMO. If they did I'd use them for oil changes.

Dealers use all sorts of oils, so don't expect to be getting TGMO. I've called a Toyota dealer and asked to purchase some...they didn't even know what it was...said they never receive calls for it...they use Mobil 1 as their "high end" oil. Others use house brands (something from local distributors, but they'll have choices between synthetic and conventional).
