Fuel Milage for your 2nd Gen Taco..

Look iam not as disappointed as a lot of you on this site , however it seems that a little panic is setting in with your choice of truck . Perhaps your worried down the road that your truck won't hold it's value do to the so called poor fuel mpg . It's like a dirty little secret getting out in the open . You may be stuck with a 35,000 truck that nobody wants . OH well . This idea is eating most of you up . STOP WATCHING YOUR FUEL GUAGE , AND ENJOY YOUR TRUCK !

 

Reported, GTFO!!

You can't handle the truth . Grow up !

 

Really? You are the one coming into a discussion about MPG, sh*tting up the thread.

 

What truth ?

You're just trolling this thread

 

You can't turn an apple into a banana , this truck is what it is perfect . Stop complaining .you can't improve your mpg's by looking at your gas gauge every second .

 

What's with the attitude? You're new here.

 

I think you have trolling mixed up with being an a-hole

 

I drive about 75mph on the highway, flat and smooth all the way no stops. Honestly I didn't even look at the mileage report on the window sticker, and I'm not "complaining" about the bad mileage, I'm just complaining that in 8 years they haven't made a noticeable improvement. I read somewhere that the 2015 will be government mandated for fuel economy, but I haven't heard any numbers. Would be interesting to know what they are.

 

yup, you cant get better MPG out these trucks...


hwy

 

this used to be an apple.......

 

Have you checked your odometer for accuracy with the winter tires?


I do the same 160 mile interstate trip every month. Odometer is off about 3%, my ScanGauge is corrected to zero error compared to 50 miles of mile markers. Compared to early fall, my mpg has dropped about 20% from 21-21.5 on this trip in warm weather to about 16.5-17 in freezing weather in January. Cold weather, winter blend gas are the reason (@67 mph in rolling country).

 

Too bad brakeman got banned. He was so insightful.

 

Haha

You're banned

 

Sounds like my kind of terrain.


The only indication I have of accuracy right now is highway markers, which seem to match perfectly at this point.


Brakeman is banned?? That's horrible! His posts contributed so much!

 

Wow. He got banned for that, or were there other posts that did it? That seemed rather innocuous to me.

Edit: Never mind... I saw a few more of his posts. Douche.

 

Ye shall search. Ye shall find the answer. Him hath spoken from the ass more than once.
