    Hey i currently have a 1st gen tacoma and plan on getting a 2nd gen sometime this year. I want to put a 6" inch lift with 35's..or 33's. I was wondering what gas would be like with both set ups and also what it would be like with a 3 inch lift and 33s...or any size lift inbetween...please comment your lift size, tires, and any mods that could affect gas! Thanks!!

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    From what I have read in the mileage threads, most modified Tacos get anywhere between 13-16.

    Ive read people with a 3" lift and 33"s getting around 19-20 Pure highway. But i guess most of it depends on how you drive it

    Exactly. IMHO I wouldn't care if I got 10-12. I love my truck.:cool: Wouldn't trade it for the world. But I'm in the 17-19 mpg area. Or 290-330 miles a tank. Good enough for me. 3" with 33"s
