white tacoma dbl cab 4WD sport

20% tint all around, blacked out badges, flowmaster 40 series and tip, rock hood deflectors, window deflectors, home made baja bumper, 17" XDseries wheels on some nitto terra grapplers, bright white led interior lights, blue needle on white gauges, cb antenna, with cobra radio.

My tacoma is only getting roughly 13 MPG right now and the only real upgrade that i have done to it is upgrade the wheels and tires. Im curious what everyone else is getting.

Cleaned the MAF sensor and hopefully that helps. Both wires did look pretty fuzzy. Probably full of Pollen and pieces of fiber from paper filter.
