Finally made the 400 club!

401.3 miles on my last tank!

 

You stick your nose up high proud and mighty! I would much rather save wear and tear on my fuel pump..

 

haha with a 4x4 dc 6speed manuel i scratch and feather for 340.

bet you have a 5auto maybe the 4.0 but most likely 2.7 prerunner reg or access
right?

 

X1

 

2008 dc 4.0

 

Auto right? also what was the ave temp during that tank?


I live in Maine and have been getting ~278 miles per tank (winter gas, low temps, using 4x4 a lot)

i have a 2009 AC Manual 4x4 6spd 4.0...in the summer i was getting around 18 MPG...I think i got around 320 miles per tank once...

 

Cool, I got about 375miles on my last tank. But the fuel light didn't come on. Also I didn't want to run out of fuel on I10

 

It was a one time thing, I just wanted to see how much I could get. The average temp was about 55 all week while driving.

 

With these low temps and the winter mix of fuel I dropped about 40 miles off of what I used to get out of a tank

 

Nice to see what I should be capable of.
How much did it take to fill it up at 401 miles?

 

I haven't seen 300 miles in a long time!!! Damn winter gas, 4x4, in town, and pulling people out!

 

It only took a little over 19 gallons so I could have gone another 20-30 miles.

 

I tow 2-3 dirt bikes and am curious what I will get with the summer gas.

 

I'm sorry, but I have to call BS here. No way you are going 420-430 miles on a tank of gas with the 4.0.

I think someone is putting gas in your tank at night as a goof.

 

you are entitled to your opinion.

 

I have a 4.0 dcab or 4x4 and have done it several times, no lift 265 75 16 lt tires.

 

I have seen other people post similar results. I didn't feel like arguing. Thanks for the validation!

 

I think I have to call BS too!!!...the most I've seen in my 2010 is 265 miles...and I was nervous about driving to the gas station because it had been on E so long. I don't care what anyone says about winter gas...there is no way it causes a difference of 125 miles per tank. You guys must coast down hills and drive like old ladies! Someone help me understand how there can be this much disparity. I want to believe it.

 

400 is very possible for an 4.0 auto. I'm stoked that I finally hit 20mpg. 353 miles at 17.6 gallons with a DC 4.0 4x4 and a manual!

 

To reach that kind of mileage on a tank obviously requires some special circumstances such as a tank were you are driving primarily on a highway at a speed of 60-65 etc. If you drive your truck in town primarily, it is unlikely that you can get much over 300 miles per tank, I consistantly see this kind of mileage and typically do not run my tank down to vapors.
