    Man Colorado is nice. My first time here. There are so many Tacomas and Tundras here. Seems like every other Tacoma should be on TW.

    I didn't think diesels got much better MPG than that. My buddy said he gets about 15 mixed and 14 pulling.

    It can't be that big of a difference. Hell my Tacoma's stock size was 245 and it didn't hardly affect the mpg

    Since low sulpher diesel came out I have not heard of anyone getting better than mid teens out of a 3/4 or 1 ton.
