Best tank so far

I dont think I've seen over 300 in my truck..

 

wth im getting like 325 on a full 19 gallons. do you have a lift or anything? or my truck just have too high of miles to be doing that lol

 

Last 2 tanks on our road trip to Boston I got 21.4 usmpg (almost 26 imp)

I filled up with 61 liters and had 520 km on the tripmeter, probablycould have went a few more km.

Maybe the secret is that cheap US gas.......

 

Pretty good

 

I got 498 km's on 68.20 Litres of gas, all city. 99% Of the time I had it under 2000 Rpm's.

 

After reading about peoples fuel mileage I decided to find out if I could do any better. Yes I drove like an old man, I am an old man.

Here is how it broke down.
Full to 3/4 tank 180 miles driven.
3/4 to 1/2 tank 290 total miles driven.
1/2 to 1/4 tank 400 total miles driven.
1/4 to fuel warning light, 475.5 miles driven.

I was close to a gas station, filled up at 477.7 miles driven, took 17.836 gallons which works out to
26.782911 miles per gallon, rounded off is 26.8 mpg.

I do not do hypermiling, drafting off semi's, putting in neutral and coasting down hills, running stops, etc. I have a 4.0 V6 with an auto trans.

I do have a camper shell, plus another 300 lbs in the bed.

 

Very impressive!!!! Must be all highway miles ????

 

Yes all highway miles except for approximately 6 miles city.

 

this is bananas!!!

 

My best is 25.4 and I thought that would be unbeatable. Got it driving around Yellowstone where the maximum speed is 45 mph.

 

I agree. Thats a record for the taco

 

Dude, get that fixed asap! You're doing damage to your truck driving it like that, especially if you're speeding.

 

33's stock gears, long travel, armor, and so on...

 

I squeezed 775km out of mine last fill up. Was a mix of highway and city. I drove like there was an egg under my gas pedal though lol.

 

WTF

 

No way. Now that's a record forsure. I'm proud of my 707km. What speed do you maintain on the highway?

 

I drive like I have somewhere to be, full acceleration from stops, 5-10 miles over the speed limit when possible, and I get 18.5 mpgs every tank. That's half highway, half city, carrying about 350 lbs in the bed plus a snugtop shell. I'd like to get a little better mileage, but I've realized that I'm not willing to change my driving habits.
I know the tricks to get better mileage, but I can't stand being behind someone who only worries about their fuel mileage, not the flow of traffic.

 

I wish I could get 275 to 300 from a tank......

 

I get between 350 and 360 to a tank if I let it go to E and that's with 70% highway. My first fill up was approx 19 mpg and that was with spending a whole afternoon sitting in DC traffic and doing some local errands

 

All you guys getting incredibly high mileage with your tacos must be the annoying sons'a bitches that I have to pass all the time

My fuel light comes on religiously at 280 miles. It's been that exact same number in all three of my 2nd gen tacos, and my FJ.
