    My truck is a TRD Sport 4x4. And it has a roof rack on it, but I had the crossbars folded away for that drive.

    Great. I KNOW it's possible. I'm getting 19+ consistently around town, and 22+ consistently on the freeways. Just got my Scanguage mounted. I'll be posting. BTW, my very first full tank average was 21. 33% highway, 66% town.

    Gas is $2.00 a gallon. Floor it and enjoy. It's better for the economy.

    I've been buying 93 octane since it is so cheap. increases the gas mileage and performance while helping the economy. I bought 93 for 2.09 I think

    I have 8400 miles on my Taco

    I average 16.5 mpg .... 95% highway driving ... maybe 17 mpg at 60 mph.


    worst 13.2 mpg in rain storm ...

    BEST mileage I ever got was driving south on highway 65 in the Arkansas Ozark mountains; weight in truck was minimum and all power draining components off: I was going DOWNHILL at 6% decline with a tailwind ...nothing in the box ... tailgate down ... nitrogen in the tires ... air conditioning off ... lights off ... nothing in the cab ... I hadn't eaten yet ... and I was holding my breath ... 19.1 mpg .... woo hoo.
