    I've noticed more sr tacomas are fleet trucks having the 4 cylinder. My guess they're just cheaper to operate over the long run. The strange part is our water company opted for all sr5 v6 tacoma's, and the 4 cylinder eco boost rangers. Maybe they prefer more power idk, or there are good profits in selling water.

    old photo of my everyday drive to work before lift and tires. The mpgs on the 4cylinder stock is actually really good. Ive never seen these numbers on a v6.

    Those numbers are like bs, if you perform the actual math. I can get basically the same feel good numbers on my v6 if I rely on that particular dash function.
