    I'm getting 22-24mpg depending how I drive it. I'm 50/50 city and highway with occasional short trips. My last tank I drove it like I stole it just to see, went 422 miles and filled up with 18.8 gallons which works out to 22.4mpg.

    I usually see 23 or 24 mpg. I had one tank at 21 mpg but that was cold weather and craponal gas. 2016 SR 4x4 AC stock tires. 4 cyl Tacomas get better than sticker. I have never gotten better than 24 mpg. I am at 6000 mi.

    The posts on this forum don't seem to bear that out, not that it is hard data.

    Did anyone try to with Using that ECT PWR button try to figure out their MPG. if you can remember to put it on every time you use your truck . I wonder now that I have put a truxedo lo pro on it if see a difference from that alone. Iand first I'm gonna do this whole tank of gas with out using the ECT PWR button and then the next tank I'll try it whit using the ECT PWR and see what MPG is then .
    Wonder if a combo of it would produce a better MPG then one or the other alone ( on/off)

    It's about $1.70 here.

    I really don't like how it drives in the power mode. Holds 1st way too long, and way too quick to shift back down once it finally upshifts.
