A personal record for my Taco.

It was on my Google feed

 

On trips of 100 miles or more, typically get 26+mpg...short trips same roads 20-21mpg. No I dont drive like grandma, but do hypermile when given the opportunity. Pisses off the folks behind me, but we both get to the light as it turns green anyway.....so no full stop most of the time.

 

I get around 21 mpg to and from work. Weekend driving it's more like 22-23. On back roads just cruising, I can easily get 26 mpg. Central/Eastern Missouri. Light armor, stock 3.5 and M/T.

Tacomark16 had a good point. With all this fancy electronic computerized shit, you can get fooled. But, I did go and check the settings. I am on MPG/US NOT MPG/Imperial. I also know running downhill just after fill up will give you higher than normal MPG. This is a flat run.

 

Can't relate

 

I can get ~21 normally on the highway with little town driving. But get ~17 in town. Had my kayaks in back so I was getting a little less today. Only time I saw close to 26 was cruising at 45.

 

Gas grass or ass no one rides for free I don't care about fuel economy I very rarely fill mine some one else does one way or another lol it's a crazy world

 

I get 22 to 23mpg under those conditions and I have a MT

 

My truck has always gotten slightly better in “big” cities on the highway. They have real roads whereas where I live there are lots of hills and the road surface is pretty rough. Before I moved I had a 120+ mile drive everyday to work and I was averaging about 16mpg (stock). But then again the speed limits are 70 and I generally have the cruise set on 75.

 

Nice grill!

 

I would agree with that. DFW is a big metroplex, but I still manage a fair amount of highway driving.

 

wanted to see how many feathers i could rustle, and i was more successful than i thought i would be! you guys never disappoint, that was just after fill up, about 20 miles driven, all flat, going about 55-60. sorry for disappointing

 

I do 99% highway driving, but again speed limits are always 65 MPH or higher.

 

Report back when you’re ready to fill back up. Remember to take a photo

 

Amateurs.

 

Toyota has some good deals on the end of year Prius

 

Fuck yeah I get 13.5. Lol. I forgot the screen even showed mpg. I gave up looking at it like a year ago!
