    I've done exactly that 2 times. First time the truck read 16.1 but I got 16.5. Second time it was dead on.

    I crisco'd the front of my truck and it helped quite a bit.

    Only place where I can get NO ethanol is when I sneak onto the nearest Air Force base and fill up with JP4.

    Christ, you guys bitching and analyzing about 22 vs 20 mpg should have just bought a Prius or a Civic.

    I wish I was getting 22mpg. For the way this Camry motor feels and drives you'd think you should be getting closer to 30mpg

    If you put helium in your tires you'll gain 15 HP and another 5 MPG

    It's the fake sport hood scoop. Security thinks it's a new variation on the F16

    I've learned not to pay attention to anyone's mpg numbers. Most people just use the computer value for their data, which isn't accurate and most people haven't checked their odometers for accuracy which, in the case of the OR model is under by 2.5%. Then you have all the people that don't calculate for bigger tires. It's all just BS. Meanwhile I am averaging nearly 23mpg with a good portion of that being in town driving.

    2 more MPG but I had to derp/dip my air filter housing and the fan belt rubs so I had to lift the idle arm pulley. If a Pratt and Whitney buff engine can run on it why not an Atkinson.

    Are you implying the Taco requires premium? My owners manual indicates recommended fuel type as 87 Octane [Research Octane Number 91] or higher.
