Its actually a great reminder. I dont know if my dealership was on crack (totally possible ) or if they made a mistake, but they told me i need to get my first change at 3700 miles. Regardless, byt the time i went in, right around the 3700 mark, the car was running like crap.
The new dealer i took it to, told me i didnt need one till 5k but perfomed the service anyhow. Regardless, car is running MUCH better now

I went and got my 1st one this morning at Carson Toyota - took about an hour (with an appointment.) They put in 5w-30 without me even asking (some people were saying they got 10-30 from their dealership.)
Wanted to pickup a bB front badge, but they're all out - waiting on a shipment - a couple of weeks the guy said.

oil weights
i dont think anyone anwered the oil weight question so i will attempt....feel free to correct me if im wrong.
The different weights are basically like the thickness of the oil and you need diff weights for different temperaturs and such someone in new england where it could be way below zero would need a diff weight than someone in arizona where it is really hot. I myself am about to change the oil in my tranny gear box b/c the recent cold here in maryland has made shifting harder outta first and second.
Im not sure but i think the lower # weights are "thinner" and for lower temps and the higher are thicker and for higher temps...not sure on that so feel free to correct me.
Main point is the dealership knows what you need for your region...trust them to take care of your car :D
