Estimating MPG with 33" Tires

^You know you are already giving up some fuel milage by selecting the 6-speed instead of the 5-speed auto, right?

 

Yes way, I absolutely was. It's not city traffic but I'm not on a highway. Back roads and stops along the way. That included all my droving even some around town. I never really took it on a long trip to see what I get on the highway. But it's dropped considerably since lift and wheels.

 

Stick's the only way to drive bro. That's a non-argument. Gotta pay to play.

 

cool. bro...

 

I got 20 religiously when my taco was bone stock. Lift, tires, gears and armor now I get anywhere from 11-14 (without calculating for larger tires), I am calling bs on the 6" lift, 35s that gets 21 MPGs though.

 

2006 DCSB 4X4 Auto with armor, 33" 3" lift = ~17 mpg mainly highway.

When it was bone stock, I was getting 19-20 mpg.

 

4x4 Reg Cab 5 speed with 3 inch lift and 33's on stock gears getting 19mpg average. I drive a good bit of highway and don't bother pushing my little 4 banger for speed.

Noticed wind makes a huge difference now, windy weeks get more like 16-17mpg. Not sure if it would be as noticeable with the v6 or with new gears.

 

16mpg is my best and that's with 31s now that I have 33s I'm inly getting like 285 miles to a full tank
