    Welcome to TW! I believe that's about the right mpgs for the 3.4 V6, but I could be wrong.

    Sounds about right for a stock 3.4L. Friend of mine has a 4runner with the 3.4L, 3" OME lift and 285's. He does not even get 15 mixed.

    Thanks all ,I kind of thought I was getting the best I can get. Is a K&N filter as good as a AFE filter?
    Thanks

    P245/75 R16 109s pathfinder Sport SAT ...I put these tires on before I went on a 4500 mi. Road trip a few years back. At one point I was getting 23-24hiwy .. Plus these tires are much easier to push thru the
    Snow. These tires I think are made by Toyo or Yokahama. It's a little more of an aggressive tread but not an off/roader tread..
