Post your '16 MPG

ScanGauge II (calibrated over many tanks.)

Yeah, looks like OR is worse from everything I have seen here. I was hoping to pick up a cheap air dam.

 

im currently getting 17.5 mpg commuting to work. all city driving.

 

Another member, in an offline conversation, said he picked his OR yesterday and was getting low-mid 20's driving 75mph on the highway. I think we just don't have enough data yet.

 

So really about the same as a 4R huh?

 

elevation, climate and how heavy footed you are will probably also play a role. i got a little over 18mpg driving the truck home from where i bought it. averaging also about 75mph but there were a lot of steep inclines on that highway.

 

I think it largely comes down to how people drive.

 

not exactly sure what those get but sure?

 

I think you are right about that, but I believe most of us were expecting better numbers than the Runner's V6 and the 2Gen's V6....doesn't seem to be the case.

 

Absolutely.

 

The Runner's 4.0 V6 270 HP claims to get 17/21. Some people say that's not great, but I think those people are comparing it to cross-over SUVs, which isn't fair. Anyway, I was hoping the "all new" 3.5 V6 Atkinson cycle would get better than the old Taco and the Runner.... but Toyota's site claims 17/20 for the OR trim. Makes me think WTF?! lol

 

Never have seen or heard of an engine "settling in" or "breaking in" to the tune of significant MPGs improvement -- think this is something that is overstated and overly optimistic.

 

Feather the pedal, drive like a nana and you'll see more improvement than putting 300, 3000 or 30000 miles on your vehicle

 

Levo?

 

I'm looking forward to seeing what a high flow muffler will do for my gas mileage. Have an appointment with an custom exhaust shop on friday.

 

And many of us are far surpassing it. Im guessing it comes down to driving habits.

 

With what trim? And "far" surpassing it? How far? (sorry if you already posted it, I didn't look through the entire thread)

Nah I don't "work" at Toyota ...meant to edit my bad

 

I have a trd sport 4x4 with AT tires on it and I'm averaging 20-22 around town. 18 of I'm really creeping along and hitting eve thing red. I'm also not even close to broken in.

Meanwhile others can't seem to sniff that on the freeway. One would guess the cause is driving habits. Or at least I would.

 

That 17/20 is for manual transmission only. Just to be clear.

 

Driving habits or a math error! haha. Just kidding, good for you.
