the secret is to use water, no oil

I use tap water, with whatever filter is on sale.

I don't know what's wrong with dealership's oil? I mean, they built your car right?

I've tried Castrol edge blah blah blah, and Mobil 1 and Royal Purple. Best so far is Royal Purple and by far and I always get the TRD oil filter...

Around what mileage should we start using a thicker oil?
or should we stick to 0w-20 for the remainder of the engines life?
