    Well according to your trip on the odometer you went 5 miles and used 15.7 gallons, or 0.31 miles per gallon :p but how many gallons you bought tells nothing about miles per gallon

    Nice. Maybe I should have gone that route. The XRS must not be as wide as my RS seats. There is only about 5.5" between the seats then you add the seat belts and I couldn't keep my center console. I still love my seats.

    I believe you. I got 21-22 on driving home one time. My last tank I only got like 15mpg because nearly half of the tank was used going over rocks haha



    Spent 4 hours washing, clay barring, waxing, and vacuuming it today. Hasn't been this clean in a while!

    Now in a few days fill up again and record how much you put in and divide by how many miles you drove and see what that number is.

    It's so much easier to just get an ultragauge! Haha

    You also have to calculate in the bigger tires, so if you just divide your mileage by how much gas you have used you're actually getting more than that. I have to multiply the miles I've driven by .07272 to get the correct mileage.

    My Taco had a bent right rear rim, so to fix this problem I started looking for new rims. The rims I found were too expensive, my Auto teacher had offered me some stock rims, so I bought those rims from him. Since I got my Taco I wanted black rims, so I ground down my rims to metal, and painted the stock rims. I took the tires off of my old rims (they are very new) and had them mounted on the painted rims today. I also removed the step bars from my Taco because I didn't use them. I think my truck looks a lot better now. :D

    I was getting 14mpg back in Missouri since all I ever did was drive 1 mile to work and back 5 days a week. Short trips will definitely kill you mpgs...
