Is it ok to use the synthetic oil blend sold at Lube Express in my 2005 Toyota Camry?

Yes, but why would you want to. Forget blends and get a full synthetic like Amsoil or Mobil 1.
I can get 4 qts of synthetic oil blend, filter, top off all fluids at Lube Express for $19.98 with a cupon.

You have to wear a cup to get that price? I would have thought maybe a thong at least...
I have never needed to worry about protecting that area when getting an oil change. Sounds pretty rough!
Yes, as long as the oil meets the specifications outlined in the owner's manual for your car.
I see the other posts, and I still have a comment. I don't like 'blends' since they are more expensive than conventional oil(which is recommended for my toyota), and I don't know how much 'synthitic' is in them.
I mean, do they put a drop per 1000 gallons of regular oil?

I don't like blends, why waste a perfectly good synthetic oil by mixing it with non-synthetic. Go will a full synthetic, it may cost more, but it's worth it...after all, how much did you pay for your car.
