Fuel mileage

How many miles should I get out of a 2000 2.7 4x4 automatic?? Help!!!

 

19ish

 

I get 23-24 hwy, 20-22 around town. Regular cab manual transmission though.

 

I got 20 max before I put on 33's. Factory 4:30 gearing and 31's.
I have a MT though

 

Damn, I wish I my 3.4 got that! She's thirsty all the time!

 

Best I ever got was 22.

 

I tend to drive slow and mostly keep a light foot. My v6 Nissan gets similar milage on the highway, but 2 mpg less around town, probably because it weighs 1300 lb more.

 

My #1 complaint of my Tacoma, a 4 cylinder that can only do 21mpg on the highway......however the payoff is 308,000 miles on the clock and no payments for 15yrs.

Pick your pain.

 

Mine averages 24. 21 minimum and 27 maximum.

 

Check my sig. And that is 90% hwy.

 

I have a 95 2.7 4x4 automatic (160,000mi) and carry a fairly heavy fiberglass camper shell on it. I get 18.5 with a decent mix of city and local hwy, with some stoplights. I feel if I ran out a tank at about 60 mph I'd be about 21mpg or so. I just never drive it long distances.

 

What about miles per tank?

 

multiply the MPG by tank capacity

 

We get 20-22 MPG. When it dropped below that we had to replace the Air/Fuel Sensor and o2 sensor as it threw a code.

 

400-490 to fill light on(~3 gallons remaining).

 

Oh look, another MPG thread.

Look, OP, your MPG will not be the same as other folks. It depends on everything from your gearing, if you have a pre-runner, gearing, transmission, tires, how much crap you carry with you, to how much of a lead foot you have, etc...

Most people with 4x4s get anywhere from 14-18. Some people even claim they get better mileage than what the factory claims (though I find that hard to swallow).

I had a 97 5-lug 2.4L and I got around 27 which seems pretty normal.

Why do you so desperately need to how many miles in a tank you get?

 

Because it seems to be rapidly changing.. no codes or cant find anything wrong? I got 240 miles out of a 18 gallon tank

 

Best thing you can do is keep an eye on it over several tanks and compare the fuel pumped against your odometer. I just take the receipt from the pump and take a picture of it next to my odometer with my phone, then dump it all into a spreadsheet.
