Tacoma owners 4x4 AND 4x2 what fuel mileage do you get?

Just averaged my first tank using Fuelly.com and got 21.4 mpg. I pretty much just drive 30 min round-trip to work and don't have too many red lights.

2012 Tacoma DoubleCab V6 2wd

 

OP if your not a speed freak or wont tow or haul anything go with the 4 banger. Go to the dealer and see how it drives, its not as bad as everyone says it is.

 

Agreed. Unless i floor the v6 or am going up a large hill, I don't even notice the difference. And that's why I had a 5spd

 

14.5 and dropping

 

2012 Double cab 4 cyl. Prerunner 25-26 mpg combined.

 

4 cyl ... 60 mph ... cruise control ... under 2000 mpg ... check out fuelly

 

I get 18-19 mpg with mixed city and hwy out of my V6 4x4 auto double cab

 

I already have a F-250 Diesel that gets 14-16mpg so I already have a Fuel sucker and as much torque as I need to pull whatever I want.I want a smaller truck that gets as good of fuel mileage as possible.

 

Do not get a pre-runner OP, get a 5-lug AC cab. 5 luggers always win on MPG's every time!!

 

Thanks for the heads up I kinda figured the Pre-Runners got 2-3 mpg less than the smaller 5 lug 2wdrives.

 

2008 TRD OR 4x4 V6 and 285's, 20.59 MPG last tank.

 

2011 4 cyl double cab prerunner and just filled today. 20.4 mpg, driving nice n easy, but i go over a mtn every day. Last time i drove with the hammer down, i got 19.

 

Double cab V6 the best I have ever gotten is 18.5 MPG. So if you get a V6 don't look at getting great mileage. Also to get that 18 MPG I have to drive pretty easy keeping it around 2-2500 RPM. If hard on the gas it will dip into the mid 16's.

 

I've been averaging 20.5 all summer with 87 octane, and with an occasional goosing of the accelerator each week. Last week, I finally hit 21.1 mpg driving the same way.

 

AC 4x4 4 banger 5 spd--24 to 27.5 mpg (accounting for odometer error), mostly mountain and highway driving.

 

2010 DCSB 4x4 with Flowmaster muffler, K&N CAI, 5100s, and 265s and my last two tanks have been 20.7 mpg

 

I believe if you stay away from ethanol blended fuels you can get over 22 reliably with the V6.. I found using 0%Ethanol premium ( I can't find 0% regular) I got 21-23 regularly. Since installing the supercharger I have averaged 20.51 MPG (Imp gallons are slightly bigger than US gallons though).

 

California gas, combined city and highway, 4 door auto., 4x4 Off Road: 15-17 mpg (honest, correct miles, daily driving.

IF you are pure highway, and a light load, then it can go up to 18-20. I have yet to get better than 19 1/2 mpg, and that was on Mexican gasoline, all highway. Usually when I am driving all highway, it is for a Baja trip and I am loaded down pretty good, so 17 mpg is lucky.

 

I've driven my DCSB 4X4 Sport to and from work virtually everyday since Aug of 2009. I have every fillup recorded in an excel spreadsheet along with date, miles per tank, and gallons of gas. This is 78K miles of data.

My Tacoma has given me a running average of over 21 miles per gallon every tank since I bought the truck.

 

I have a '12 5 lug sr5 access cab 5spd.

I average between 22-23mpg in the city, and 24-26mpg on the freeway.

I drive pretty static most of the time, i usually keep my speedo 5mph above speed limit in the city. I never go above 60mph and the roads are somewhat flat here in virginia. Im not one of those guys that tries to get the gas mileage either, it just happens.

From what I've read, the 5lug taco is a top contender for gas mileage.
