    BTW, my ODO rolled 30k today. :)

    Paid $3.069 yesterday for a top off for a trip to see mom for her 89th birthday. After my credit card discounts it was only $2.91. Also today gasoline futures went down 13¢. Time will tell if we see that decrease. The speculators will probably jack it back up tomorrow. MY short fill was 223.1 miles on 8.587 gallons. MPG was 26.0 gallons. Same as last tank.

    My current tank from the trip will suck, strong gusty sidewind and high speeds 75 MPH average for the trip.

    I did my first real measurement of MPG yesterday. I just rolled over 3,000 miles and have held off until now. Mine is a 2011 Tacoma, 2.7 I-4, automatic transmission, 4X4, regular cab. I ran 150 miles and refilled gas tank. I averaged just over 24 MPG over both Interstate and two lane highway mix with modest winds.

    I paid $3.29 but saw it for as low as $3.09.

    Did a fill last night, and as I thought the high speed windy conditions for most of this tank, dropped my mileage to 24.5 MPG. Check my fuelly for the details

    Took a day trip to Nashville yesterday, about 80% highway driving averaging about 75 mph, filled up before I left with ethanol-free. 22.4 mpg. A little disappointed but that's what you get for driving fast I guess

    Speed is the enemy, On the highway 65 MPH = 26+MPG 75 MPH=24 MPG or less if really windy on the front or sides.

    For me, 80+ MPH = 28 MPG

    And...80+MPH while pulling a jet ski = 25 MPG :D

    Nothing good to report here, filled up and it's 7F out there and low -4 tonight. Gassed up early not wanting to find myself empty.

    431.6 miles, 16.654 for 25.9 mpg.

    100% city, didn't get on the highway once this tank.

    Yet his prerunner get's the same EPA rating as yours or mine. Toyota is sure abusing the letter of the law on that one.
