    What's this 20mpg you speak of....

    I think my Landcruiser is like 16mpg highway stock. Granted all it's got now are ~34s on it, but I'm sure those aren't doing it any good.

    I don't know how you guys do it. I've never been able to squeeze 20 out of the ol' pig.

    I resemble that remark. I'm averaging 12.5 on the last few tanks, now that we're into 'remote start' season again.

    That makes me feel a little better. I'm averaging between 13 and 14 on winter blend, remote start season, shitty Boston traffic every day and about 500 lbs of winter weight in the bed. It's certainly no Prius but that's not terrible for the land yacht.

    My biggest downfall is the short commute; the transmission fluid never gets up to temp on my 15 minute drive to the office. Once it's warmed up the instant read jumps 2-3 mpg's. On the other hand, the short commute keeps my weekly gas bill around $40, even though the daily has a drinking problem.

    My truck decided it wanted to start putting on a light show! The LED headlight kit I put in is apparently on the fritz. Keeps flashing from high to low beam. Pretty confident it’s not the truck wiring because it’s only one side and seems very sporadic. One of the cooling fans is shot also which leads me to believe that could be the cause... at least it happened when I have some time off from work to actually deal with it!
