    I see that they bought Acar or something at some point after I last looked. general reviews are not so kind ......

    FWIW the fuelly FAQ says "No, we don't have native apps for these devices. We do have Fuelly Mobile, a site optimized for mobile devices. Just browse to m.fuelly.com on your phone and you can add fuel-ups from there."

    For now I have installed a third party app that sends the SMS to fuelly.

    OT: My 2015 (2500 miles) so far has gotten 19.8 but I drove like an old woman with eggs taped to her shoes.

    Drill yes frack no. Watch the documentary fracking 2. You might change your mind. You will have $1 per gal but will be paying $6 for a gallon of water.

    They bought ACAR. The app works quite well for what it is... been using it for several years now.

    He hasnt even been here since '18.

    I'd wager that's around the time he ditched the Tacoma.

    In 2012 the SAIS (Secondary Air Intake System) was added to the engines. Delete mods exist, but a tune will be required.
