after 3" lift whats your MPG

to the point.

alien i need pics...ps everyone it is snowing in Shreveport as we speak.

 

i am curious to see this thread when there are a couple hundred replies. With that being said I get approx. 16 with my prerunner dc and 285/70/17 tires and a small lift.

 

16.9 mpg on 87 with corn - OME 3inch and 285 Hankook MTs

 

i average between 15.5-16.

 

326 miles
17.536Gal
3in lift
stock dunlops on the sport
4x4 v6 6speed
=18.590328miles per gallon

 

Will the TRD Supercharger help at all in fuel economy. OR regearing it? I know it helps power wise, but the extra power should save milage.

 

considering you can only run premium if you SC, i dont know if that would really save anything...

premium gas is kinda expensive...

 

How is everyone calculating their MPG's? It seems like some of the numbers are high.

 

i am getting around 16-20 avg on my 3" lift. went down after i put the trd cai in.

 

I have 3" lift 38" MTZ on 15"wide rims, I have over 52 gallon fuel tank. Wind can surely be a factor regarding mpg. And don't forget tire pressure.
Gas prices in Iceland are ridiculous so I monitor the mpg closely. To and from work I use about 15 mpg. offroading summer I use 13-14 mpg. Driving on snow on 3 psi I usually use 11-9 mpg.

 

how do you fit 38" tires under a 3" lift? get those flares

 

like this

 

pre lift: 19mpg

post lift: 15.9mpg

w/e still better than an f-250 mileage

 

i want them flares!!! they are sick. where are you from? where are the ice cubes in L.A.

READ LAST COMMENT BY ME AS A MASTER CARD COMMERCIAL- punchline is at the end...(i saw the pics too)

 

^^^^that is not mine and we could never get those flares here. That truck belongs to icefox, check his pictures.

 

I'm getting about 18 to 19 mpg with 32s (265/75R-16) and 2.5 inches of lift. FWIW I drive the truck with a fairly heavy foot too.

 

Hello everyone. My name is Brett. I have ADD and this is my story.

First, I have revised my mileage numbers. I made some changes to my Tacoma over the past couple of months and now, I am saving myself about $1,000 per year in gas.

Currently, I am getting 18 - 19 mpg in a mix of city/hwy commuting, 20+ if I could stay on the highway only. I kept my 2.5" lift, switched tires to 265/75R16 Nittos Terra Grapplers and kept my Snug Top. I started using a scanguage to monitor my driving habits, it really helps.

About 2 months ago I was getting 14.5 - 16 mpg on my commutes. One Sunday morning I woke up and decided I need to change things up. So I started the process to pull off my ARB, winch, rear swingout bumper, sliders and my BFG KM2s.

Now, I am in the process of convincing myself that I need a 2010 Army Green FJ to start a new build.

My wife smiles at me and I know she is thinking, "I married a f.... idiot".

Hopefully, my story brings some humor to your day.

 

haha nice story

 

I only get 15-17! It sucks!
