    Just picked it up 12/31...touching about 1/2 tank and 170 on the odo. Glad I found this thread as I was curious what I would get, was hoping 400-tank.

    ^You'll get more as it breaks in. Most times with new cars around 5,000-10,000 you find it runs better and gets better mileage. At least that's my experience.

    I get around 350 but I do mostly local driving.

    OK, I got 337 miles before the light came on, then drove another 22 before I needed a tankfull for a road trip. The 337 was mostly 45-55mph hilly country road driving to and from work, with numerous stops. It took 17.5 gallons to fill'rup. I'm a happy camper. :)

    I got 17.5mpg on the first tank, I filled up at 305miles and it took about 17 gallons. I used 4x4 quite a bit as it was really snowy and icy here. This next tank will be more realistic.

    Second tank I went about 350miles on 19 gallons. Did the exact math and it was around 18.23mpg...most of it this time was highway...was hoping for 20

    I've had my truck for 2 days now. Did alot of stop and go driving yesterday and today. I am 90 miles with 3/4 tank full.

    I'm hoping to get over 300 with this truck. I traded in my Hemi QC ram for this. My QC was getting about 230-250 a tank.

    My gas light came on around 270 miles. I drive only in the city, practically no highway miles. And I still love my vroom sound from the intake. I only fill up about once every 3-4 weeks.

    they only drive downhill, thats all i could think that would give u that good of gas mileage...my light always came on at about 275-290, then i'd go to 340 before i got gas lol

    obviously, driving style figures heavily in this, but i consistantly get 20+/- mpg on a tank with combination driving (70% hiway...30% off-road). have gotten nearly 22mpg on straight hiway driving trips...

    i own an 06 SR5 TRD 4.0L, 5 spd auto, tow pkg w/ 17k mi. maybe the roads are just flatter around here! lol

    wasn't aware there was a party in montgomery co, NC in april!! i am relatively new to Toyota ownership...been driving over 35 yrs and never owned one til now. it's not because i planned it that way, but i've only driven chevy trucks my entire career. so far, i'm greatly impressed w/ my Taco!

    i grew up just north of the uwharries and have backpacked there extensively. what sort of "soire' " is going on in april?
