    old thread obviously but interesting what you guys get....I'm at 190 right now with a little more than 1/4 left.

    mine's a v6 prerunner on 20's & 34' tires. I'm praying for 280 but looking more like 250.

    I have had a huge gas problem lately. I am only getting 200 miles on about 15 gallons in my 2.7l! I just replaced my plugs and wires. Going to clean my MAF this weekend. Does anyone have any other suggestions of anything I can do? Completely stock except for drop in K&N filter.

    I usually get anywhere from 250-275 on a full tank... And I have the 3RZ 2.7L

    And I somehow manange to squeeze around 17ish Gal. in the tank.

    In this month alone, I've driven nearly 1300 Mi. And I'm a senior in high school, which is literally 2 miles away from my house, and I work, which is about the same distance...

    I guess I like the skinny pedal A LOT.

    Well I broke my old record yesterday, I got 429.2 miles on a tank. It took 20.851 gallons to refill (20.584 mpg), so I wont be breaking that record until they switch to summer gas. The light came on at 353.7 and I figured I could make 1 more trip, and I did with 0.149 gallons to spare (5 gallons of just in case gas in the back).

    Might as well chime in here-

    had the truck for a few months now and finally calculated mpg...

    229.2 Miles
    14.51 Gallons
    = 15.8 MPG

    A bit of a mix between highway/cruising in 4th and city driving - coming from a turbo'ed subaru though I tend to have a heavy foot - Loving the truck... hating the 18.5 tank and expensive gas prices...

    Myth or Truth IDK- But I never run my cars down as low as some of you guys are... always fill at 1/4

    300 miles and the fuel light hadn't turned on yet, but I didn't want to keep pushing the fuel pump. This is in a 2003 Tacoma Prerunner, Double Cab, 18.5 gallon tank.

    Good way to over heat the fuel pump.

    My last tank i got 290 and the light wasnt on. I think it might be broken because i went 310 and it still didnt turn on yet and that was pushing it.
