Sure, especially in Texas!

Depends on how hot it gets. In Australia, especially inland, temps get to
40c or 105f (in the shade). I use 20-50 as recomended by the Toyota oil-grade vs temp table in the driver's handbook: 5SFE motor.In winter where temps drop to 7c or 44f the handboof recomends 10-40. Ithink in either case, especially once the engine has worn a bit, either oil would still be ok as there is substantial over-lap in the recomended oil-grades.
