    Might have to do with the exhaust, and the wheels might be heavier than stock as well. Heavier wheels means its makes more to get them moving, which means less MPG. I don't actually know the stats though, so this is a total guess.

    Manual transmission? If you're comparing yours to an automatic transmission, the mpg on the manual is worse. They're geared higher so they rev higher at highway speeds.

    I have a 4.0L double cab TX Pro and I'm getting 17 mpg. Most of that would be considered city driving.
