Toyota standards recommend that the 2009 Toyota Tacoma takeS5.5 quarts of oil with filter. At all temps, the viscosity it runs iS5W-30. These pickup trucks are very well-regarded, not only for their power but their fuel economy. Compared to other vehicles in itS-Class, this has a smaller, workman-like, engine which clocks in a 2.7L 4Cylinder. Due to the demands on this potent motor, it is highly recommended that You use a synthetic oil when having lube jobs done. This way, You can ensure that no extra stress is being placed on any of the moving parts which power the vehicle. While using these man-made lubes can require You to spend more money than You would for a conventional oil, the long-term benefits far outweigh the short-term monetary cost.
