2.7L MPG

don't feel bad I had 19.43mpg, wasn't expecting that but I used Costco brand gas that must be watered down cause I used it 2 times both were less than 20mpg, resumed using my normal brand mpgs back to normal again. Although Costco was about 10 cent cheaper a gallon

 

I'm sure I'm getting at LEAST .5 more mpg from removing the oem bug shield from the hood....still tracking the first tank without it.

 

Mines a reg cab 5spd, 3 inch lift on 32's (235's) and I got 310 miles until gas light. I have to wait until after work to see how many gallons but last tank was 16.4. I don't mind tho since the little things a beast, I like it more than my v6 OR

 

if you remove the spare tire you will get 1mpg more

 

My spare hovers magnetically so it has no bearing on mpg...........

 

Drove 3,600 miles in a week last week... got around 18mpg going 80mph into the wind on the interstate. The big surprise was a 26mpg tank in Colorado, most above 7,000'. Lots of <60mph drives but also lots of flooring it in 3rd gear to get up an incline. Figured it would've been my worse tank...

Love my 2.7L 5 speed but unfortunately it doesn't really love me at 80mph

 

High altitude has many advantages, less wind resistance, and less power = less fuel.

 

I have a 2016 at and I do around 95% highways.. I have now 15k on it and I've been tracking my mpg for 1 year and I have been doing aroung 21.

79mph at 2100rpm on 6th gear almost all the time..

 

23 is what i get on highway roadtrips. Havent tracked it around town but im guessing 18-20

 

Which tire size do you have? I have 265.. maybe that's why I don't get to 23

 

235/75/15 mine is also a single cab which probably helps

 

I have religiously calculated my mpg for a few years now...as of the last few months i have noticed an upward trend. Today i hit 22.5 mpg.

 

Mine came with 225/75/15

It has 225/70/16 now

 

Current average MPG is in the sig below. Best MPG was over 30, on a very long and flat road trip. Worst MPG was about 17. Bone stock truck on 215/75R15 street radials.

 

2013 2.7 double cab...on a road trip from Atlanta to Montgomery, AL, I averages 23.8...usually just driving it around town, I get 20.8. I use a Gas tracker app

 

Nice

Way better than my 01 2.7l doublecab

 

17 mpg stock, Austin traffic and loaded with tools.

 

2013 Pre runner SR5 Doublecab 4 cylinder...all stock...averaging 14mpg.....all city driving. Disgusted. Hwy driving is around 15mpg. Only thing I can think of is the truck is severely under powered and engine just has to work too hard. Double cab pre-runner is a big truck.

 

@DCSBFTMFW , was yours like this too?

 

New tires and had alignment done, filled up afterwards (last week) and calculated mpg when i filled up today: 23.1 MPG!
