cleared 1000

Hit the 1000 miles yesterday, all good so far!

 

How long have you had your truck? This is my 10th day of ownership and I'm about to hit 1000.

 

Hey, Got the truck on the 17th of October, so 3 weeks. Looking around for all the side things, sliders or nerfs, mud flaps, bug deflector, etc.... hard time finding anything, truck is to new!

 

Hit 820 after having mine 7 days. Only issue so far is having the radio go black and reset during a trip yesterday, but I had 2 apps running, 1 phone hooked up bluetooth, and 1 phone USB. so not sure if i overloaded it or what

 

I'm at 3800 miles, I already drove cross country towing a trailer. Other than the Entune stereo freezing, everything is very good.

 

What are you getting for mpg? V6? 4x4?

 

Im averaging 18-19, 4wd TRDOR

 

I got 13.2 mpg avg cross country towing 2600 lbs. TRD OR 4x4 V6.
I am now getting 19.6 avg on a tank.

 

I do mostly city driving, lots of lights, stop and go, hardly any HW driving, I'm getting 17, sometimes a little more, never below 17

 

How many cup holders in the '16? Less than 13 holders?

 

See, this is why going with smaller displacement engines puzzles me. My DCLB sport gets between 18-19 in the summer if I drive it hard. If I'm a little easier on it, I can get dead-on 20. This is suburban daily driving with a lot of hills. I once pushed 23 out of it on a ~60 MPH flat highway drive. From what I've seen in threads on here, there doesn't seem to be a real world difference for MPG on the 3.5 vs the 4.0. Same with the Colorado 3.6 vs my 4.0.

Not knocking anyone. I am jealous of the other 2016 things. I'd love a sunroof and the nicer interior!

 

I know this 'ole horse has been beat to desth...but WTF?
The mileage I'm seeing could be a small block V8. And then it would have the grunt and sweet exhaust note most of us love.
I don't get it???

 

My small block cam/heads/full bolt ons LSX does 25mpg on the highway. But about 6.5 in town

 

How did the truck pull that weight power-wise? Interesting to hear how it pulled at altitude.

 

Haha, one of the things I love, three in the console, front doors 2 each, about 6 in the back, never enough cup holders!!!!

 

No problem at all. There a lot of interest so I'll do a write up shortly. I weighed the truck and trailer at a truck stop. So I'll post that as well

 

Great. I look forward to reading it.

 

i am at 5k+.. first new taco oil change for my dealership.

 

I picked my truck up today and was told to bring the truck in at 6 months for a check up to see if all the bolts are still tight. I'll never have 5,000 miles on mine before an oil change. Dealer told me 1 year and they will change it. I was thinking I read that someplace in the manual. Not yet at 100 miles but I think Black Betty will be just fine for my 1st Toyota. Going to get her waxed tomorrow for the winter.

 

All I know is that Toyota told me that the factory Mud flaps will be out to order around February 2016.
