They cant void the entire warranty, just decide not to pay for a certain item they deam is related to the oil change proceedure. In other words they cant decide to not fix your broken axle because you used royal purple and went 12k between changes. That is why the oil manufactures tell you to use the recommended mileage on changes. I use the Royal purple and am happy with it. I let it go 12k but change the oil filter every 6k

BUT they CAN easily void a warranty if you used a lubricant NOT APPROVED by Toyota (like regular AT fluid in the AT of the Cruiser as a drastic example). Using non-approved viscosities and GL ratings would likely cause warranty problems as well.
BTW-Anyone know what makes it purple? Not a real macho-manly truck kinda colour!~
