    I have a 2009 tacoma with the V6 motor, enjoy the fuel milage i get now but would like to add a little lift. Can anyone tell me how much they lost on average mpg after lifting their truck? Thanks.

    horn that plays "la cuka racha,"

    You should probably list the specs of the lift you are looking at, tires size, etc. You'll get more accurate answers.

    I have 2.5" lift - still running original tires- zero change in MPG from the lift. A couple of thoughts- I think your tire selection will have more consequences than the lift. Also if your commute takes over 65 mph a lift is going to have more consequences at higher speeds where aerodynamics are more important.
