Whats everyone getting for MPG?

Well, it's not about what I an do on a flat stretch, for me, it's what can I do on this whole tank of gas. Have to brake at some point!

 

....and keep on proper tire pressure!

 

I know, but driving to the trails, you can save some money. Because the moment you get excited with gas, it will not take long to start getting 17 miles per gallon. I once got 17 mpg in my stock. I once was doing 89 mph on I-90 where the speed limit is 80, I got 14 MPG

 

You guys are getting 18+mpg?!

 

I try not to look!

 

that's what I was thinking too... with stock size (E load) AT tires I was getting about 15, now with E load 285's I'm just under 14, and that is driving pretty conservatively. only had the stock tires on for a couple days, but I can't imagine I would have gotten 18 or more, like some claim. must live somewhere flat and completely focus on driving for MPG.

 

The 24 MPG that I got was on a flat Highway and I was driving at 65 mph. In the city, it was horrible, I was getting like 13, because Seattle is very hilly

 

Any time I've gotten over 20 I was driving 70 MPH or less. The best was at 55-65, and no cruise control.

I've never averaged that high long term. When it was new and pretty stock, I averaged 18-ish. Now, I average 14-15.

 

Seattle. Not as bad as SF though.

 

very similar topography to where I am, 2 hours north of you. definitely hurts the MPG!

 

San Francisco

 

Wow! It must get quite interesting in a snow storm!

 

Piece of cake for the 4Runner, but I did not have the 4Runner in that snow, so I was stuck at home for a week

 

lmao same here, man.

 

Oh, it doesn't snow in San Francisco. What if it does snow in San Francisco one day

 

Then, maybe all of the homeless people will find a warmer place to shit in the street.

 

San Francisco, pretty city governed horribly

 

Is this Seattle? Looks pretty sketchy to me.

 

Seattle is a mess too.

 

But I ignore the crap in Seattle and focus on the positives. It is a pretty city.

 

Do you mean when 4Runner gets old it gets more thirsty? God help us then!

 

No. I mean that when you switch to LT/E mud tires and full armor your mileage suffers.

 

I see, feeling relieved. I am a Layman and also lazy, I will keep my Pro stock

 

Quick question. The Suburban and some F-150s have some plastic thingy below the front bumper. Why is that? If you remove that, their approach angle will be much better. With that plastic thingy, their approach angle is as bad as a Camry's lol

 

I think it's supposed to improve fuel economy. I can't say whether it works.

 

If the fuel saved is substantial, then we could put one of those in the 4Runner and then remove it once we are on the trail.

 

The 4Runner will look absolutely ugly with it though.

 

19-20 in my 2022 TRD Pro

 

I've thought about a removable one for road trips. A few extra Mpg will add up!

Mmmhmm. Sure will.
