loving my new 2nd gen taco

Well,it's been a month and two days. My first new truck ever. 2013 taco..dblcab lb 4x4 w sport pkg. Love love love it!! Just clicked 9k yesterday. ..When does mu mileage get better? I drive 200 a day and only averaging 15. Any suggestions?

 

9k in a month!!!!! Where the hell did you go

 

Well man I've always got between 19.5 & 20.5 since new. I'm guessing by your mileage much of it is interstate or state highway? My commute is 120 miles a day plus it goes on nearly about a 1,000 mile road trip every 6 to 8 weeks. My MPGs have changed very little over time.

Is it an auto or manual? What's your driving mix & style? Proper tire inflation? Carry a load or pulling a trailer?

There are a number of threads on here about mileage and how to improve it...I'm not sold on much of it though...

 

I go fm home to work in a few towns over. Joe D it's a 5spd auto,no trailer,my style is mixed. I do drive 45/50 miles on the mountain parkway and being limited access I often do like 85/90 is that the reason? I did drop in a k&n as soon as I got her. Been trying to find this charcoal cannister to disconnect?

 

And mostly interstate.

 

Charcoal canister isn't going to do anything for you on removal. Plenty of people have done it and no success

 

Please I am no hippy but do not disconnect your charcoal canister it will do nothing but add to the destruction of this planet.

 

Welcome to the forum. I'm right down the road from you in Richmond.
Here's a Kentucky thread.

slow down to 65 and you will be around low 20 mpg

 

You go 85-90 MPH? Is so, that is absolutely your problem. I have a 2013 DCSB sport 4x4 and always get around 21 in the summer. Now that winter is here I'm getting 19-20 mpg. I commute 85 round trip miles a day. Almost all highway at 70 mpg.
