I'm guessing 13 MPG is not normal for a 2015 4Runner

    Yeah, but has your driving habits or routine really changed that much, since the Gen 4? 5 mpg is a large change.

    Has anyone mentioned a front end alignment? I've a 2019 TRD Premium with 122K on it, and I'm getting 19.1 mpg. Michelin Defenders, 45 psi. Lotsa country driving, tho.

    Ok I did just now take it for a short Freeway run and I was getting around 19-21 MPG going 60-65 without traffic. So it may just be fine.

    No, I still live in the same neighborhood and I still go to the same places, I still have the same job and everything. My Tacoma gets 17-18 MPG and only weighs 400 lbs less.
    Yes, I think an alignment is a consideration. It has had one in the past. It does coast really well.

    WOW sorry to hear your stuck with $5 dollar a gallon corn fuel.
    We are in a dense area of central FL where people are like fire ants when you
    kick the mound. Our corn fuel is 2.90/3.15. non corn 89 is around 4.50.

    Maintenance things are big factors.

    Our governor is an idiot. Do NOT vote for Gavin Newsom. He is raising our gas another 65 cents per gallon to "combat climate change" via his California Air Resources Board or CARB which he appoints.
