Weird oil weight question

I'm going to go with Amsoil Signature 0w-30 for my car, a 2014 Lincoln MKS.  For the sake of simplicity, I would like to run the same oil in my wife's car as well.  Her's is a 2015 Camry with the 3.5 liter V6 (2GR-FE).  My question is whether it is ok to run 0w-30 in her car, if the factory calls for 0w-20.  We live in Orlando, Florida, so it gets fairly warm in the summer and winters are pretty mild.  Is this an ok change to make, or am I going to have to stock 2 separate oils in my garage?

0w-30 Amsoil SS is a good choice for your SHO but not a good choice for your camry...The 0 will give you proper viscosity for colder temps but when hot the 30 weight is not the proper weight for the camry.

Dang it I was afraid of that, and kind of figured it might be too thick when warm.  Not a huge deal, just wanted to streamline the garage, lol.  I appreciate the feedback.
