4.0 fuel mileage

So. I'm currently getting pretty good gas mileage. This is after my lift and before my K02's go on tomorrow. Pretty impressive.

Who else is getting what...

 

Im at an honest 17 mpg mixed driving with KO2’s in stock size, load C. 10k miles on mine, so I think she’s broken in

 

Nice. Do you keep up on maintenance? Should be a lil higher?

 

I was averaging around 18-19 combined before I changed tire size on my '19.

Not really. 17 is pretty standard for a 5th gen.

Does that dash display match your actual calculated mileage? I seem to recall the fuel economy display on my 4th gen reading a bit higher than actual.

 

oops, didnt notice I was posting in the 4th gen section. So I guess this turned into a generational comparison lol.

Did 4th and 5th gen have any significant changes in engine? Your 21mpg is really good.

and yeah, i keep up w maintenance. Ive settled on 5k oilchanges just because it gives me a chance to look around and put a few squirts of grease in the driveline zerks

 

Well if this is going to be generational comparison I get 19 MPG on my 3rz with stock everything. 22 mpg on the highway. I am not super aggressive, but I like to go a little faster than speed limit . I keep up on basic maintenance but I need to check my valve clearances.

21 mpg is above average, you must drive like a grandma or something

 

We got Dual VVT-I. The 4th gen's 4.0 was single VVT-I.

 

My average is 19 mpg mixed driving according to feully. Little screen in the car says 20.1 I think right now, so not that far off.

 

No. I mash it normally...unless I'm on the freeway. But I'm using cruise control then so maybe driving at a constant speed helps. Not sure either way.

 

I'll double check my mileage the old fashion way when I can remember too.

 

We are at a little over 19 mpg with 275 LT's, kind of a heavy tire, but was pretty happy with that. Dash said; 19.6 mpg, but miles divided by gals. says 19.1 mpg, so... close. Longer trips and going to work. 21 would be exceptional!

 

Not bad when some are getting 17mpg.

 

Note the 19.1 is on a longer trip, wife going to and from work is closer to 18. Sunday joy riding is where the best/worst mpg's are, especially if we find a old logging road or hill with a trail on it!

 

It is a well known fact that the displayed MPG is about 10-15 % higher than actual. My 4.0 gets an actual 17-18 MPG but displays about 21.

 

Your first post gets a hearty welcome.. Hearty welcome Tom

 

Me who gets 15. Thats with lift, larger tires, bumper with winch.

 

285/70-17 with ToyTec Aluma series 3” lift and averaging 16.4 mpg on good days……
