    You can if you want. You can pull up every individual users’ data exactly how your personal page looks if you clicked your own Fuelly signature link. Your 16829 miles tracked is part of the 18.7 million miles third gens have logged on Fuelly. Your 21.9mpg average is better than most other users as well and above the average for a third gen 3.5l.

    Ok, but that doesn’t change the fact that the data you and many others uploaded to the site is used to calculate the averages previously stated. You may get better fuel economy while others get worse but the country wide average for all 3.5l V6 Tacomas tracked via Fuelly in all conditions is 18.45mpg.

    Stock and staying that way
    This has been my experience also. The OBC is typically .1 to .2 mpg higher than using a calculator, in my truck.

    I've posted plenty of screen shots, but my 2wd Limited has averaged 22.5 for the past 30k miles. All but ~1,500 of that was withing 60 miles of my house, which is smack dab in the middle of the DFW metroplex.

    Mods, aggressive driving, and sitting in drive throughs (or just sitting with the engine running) will hurt fuel economy.

    EDIT: 22.5 by the OBC, so likely 22.3 actual.

    I just did a round trip run from Fort Worth to San Antonio. I don’t baby the pedal and cruising speed was ~80-82. Of course there were slow downs here and there. I ran with my ECT on and OVTune’s 93P tune on 93 octane.

    Out was worse as I had some city and traffic on the tank. back was pure highway.

    2018 DCSB4x4 Off-road stock.
    Out: 20.6
    Back: 22.5

    Routine mix: 18.5
