    this, for the first 11 miles of my commute I average around 18.5mpg, and by the time I get to work (23.7 miles) I'm almost always at 21-22

    Ive pushed 23-24 when going ~55 MPH, then MPGs started dropping by like 0.5 for every 1 MPH increase. So around 65 MPH, Im around 19-20 and by 75 MPH, Im eeking out maybe 15-16 MPG. Still better than the FJ by around 2-3 mpg, but that one had full time 4wd and no vortex things on the mirrors (and more low end torque), so Im still not seeing how "advanced" this engine and truck design is supposed to be. Both MT.

    Kind of surprised, anyone know if gas went to summer blend already?

    Castle Rock, to DIA, to CO Springs was 23.5mpg averaging 70mph

    Probably not. Winter gas isn't as significant as many try to claim, maybe 3%. Outdoor temperature is way more a factor.

    I posted details in another thread, but here is the data for my truck since new.

    i6d0ra_21bb57e4dd1e42f2ce2bf6eda3c75ba098abb5e1.gif

    I checked the real numbers for the last tank, and it was within .1 mpg of the display.

    Green (Best) is the first 2k miles, and yellow (Average) is the last 4k miles.

    This is the best trip I've ever had.

    IMG_2903.jpg


    Best average per tank is 18.9.

    Average since I've owned the truck is 17.9.

    I haven't had 19+ for a tank more than once or twice. Its 16-18.5 pretty consistently.

    I don't have to Econ function on the T4R but the Camry had it tho I've never used it. How is it that the "best" is lower than the "average"? Is it two different time periods?

    Yeah, Average is currrent, and Best is best completed. I accidentally hit the reset button right around 2k miles.

    Maybe its cause im in CA or something but im getting way less mpg than all of you. I drive 2017 trd off road v6 auto dbl cab long bed and getting about 15-17mpg. Given most my driving is in town still seems pretty low to me. I dont have a lead foot or anything like that either. 17 is a good tank with more freeway miles for the record

    I think the gas mileage on these trucks is very sensitive to throttle position changes. The more you are on/off the pedal and stop and go the worse mileage they get. The 2.7 seems to be less sensitive to it than the 3.5 is and I think that's why we are seeing drastic differences in its mileage. I'd bet most of the 3.5 drivers who are getting 22+ mpg are primarily highway or low mph local driving with few stops.

    so far I'm getting 20 in town. I can get higher but can't go a full tank without at least 3-4 trips in a heavy rush hour or 1-2 accidents killing the MPG... on my recent trip to Las Crucis NM and back, I had one tank averaged >24 all the way up to when I picked up our new pup. then it took a good hit due to the stop and go of letting the pup out every 30 min to piss or poop. next tank was climbing back into Colorado and a day of commuting and got 23. I think I'm just over 3,000 miles and almost a month of owning it. Very pleased coming from my 99. My 99's average was 16, but if you look at my fuely, it was climbing quite a bit. I had averaged right around 19-20 with it in town... but oddly enough it wouldn't get any better on the interstate... speeds were too fast. 55-60 was it's comfort range... for the 17' it seems to be 65-70.. if the speed limit is 75+, I do 70... nothing more, and sit in the right lane. big difference in MPG's I've noticed. it I still have spirited bursts of excessive throttle from time to time, but mostly I stick to the speed limit and the right lane. I'm all stock and will be getting a lift, bigger tires, and a rack for my RTT by Aug, for a trip to Oregon... I'm hoping to have gears by then too... but we'll see.
