You are comparing two different time periods, one with Oil A and another with Oil B. Your truck isn't operating in a controlled test, so there's too many uncontrolled variables (weather, tire pressure, trip distance, etc) for you to declare that your 1 mpg improvement was due to a different brand of oil.

Lacking a time machine, I averaged things over several thousand miles.

OK, but it's not uncommon for engines to deliver different fuel economy as they age.

I actually think the Yaris is good-looking for what it is. Way better than a Fit.
