I've run 0-20W or 0-30W synthetic oil in NM and TX for the past 10 years in the Honda Accord. Still doesn't burn any oil between changes. My next car will run 5000 miles on what they recommend, and then change over to these oils. I changed the Tacoma over to 0-30W when I bought it used. No problems with it either. all oil is synthetic: either Mobile 1 or O'Reilly's.
On a side note...when I bought the Accord I tried the 10,000 miles between oil changes and the oil came out in clumps. Dropped back to my normal 3K to 5K and have had no trouble. The car runs very well.
