Toyota Oil Change Secrets

-
I bought a new Toyota truck this year, tell you neighbor the oil change is every 10,000 miles, so he probably bought three oil changes.
Actually, the change intervals are measured by engine revolutions.
 
So is really about getting oil change dollars to the dealerships service departments? I think it's more about lowering the number of "do it yourselfers" pouring waste oil in storm drains, along with fewer metal can oil filters and plastic oil bottles in landfills.
Did that video suggest that the Japanese are in line with our environmental concerns while others are not?
There's another video ( 60 Second Oil Change or something like that. I can't find it again ). It shows a oil and filter canister simply lifted out much like a battery. We can only hope that technology, along with a core exchange program, is available in all brands some day.
edit for additional thought... Without first doing a Google search, I'll bet there are aftermarket remote or relocating oil filter kits for these Toyotas.
I think it's about oil change technicians transferring the used oil to recycling vessels with limited contamination and spillage.
 
Magnum Motors with roller lifters and fuel injection easily get 300, 000...
