Lets beat that horse. Any info on when we can expect MPG numbers?

If the Gen 3s are supposed to be hitting lots next month, when can we expect to see an announcement from Toyota on MPG numbers?

 

Maybe you can call the EPA.

 

Jesus fuck

 

Quote for truth.

 

You can expect to see MPG figures when you see them at the dealer lots.

 

I was thinking we'll see numbers after my third fill-up...

 

69 MPG. huh huh. I said 69.

 

Seriously though. Big Toyota announcement in August and the TFL guys are invited. I'd suspect there is a good possibility MPG will be announced then.

Don't buy a truck if MPG is your primary factor, but MPG is and should be a factor to consider.

 

Can't we wait to debate opinions until page 2?

 

Who really cares, most 2016 owners will be inflating their MPG #s anyway. My super low mile 2006 DCSB 6-speed 4x4 didn't get what others were "getting". A BS EPA mpg number means very little to me.

 

I have always gotten similar, if not better MPG than EPA estimates. It's not a perfect system but I'd say it's mostly fair.

 

I get close to the epa numbers. A better system would be to say you could get between these numbers.

 

Me too. Not just tacomas but every vehicle I've ever owned. If you have any kind of awareness and anticipation of what's coming up in the road, you should easily exceed the mileage by 10-15%.

 

Awesome, once I threw on 33's I got between 12 and 25 mpgs

 

Most tards stand on it for 300 yards even though they are are approaching a red light with a line of stopped cars. Then they dynamite the brakes. Repeat when the light turns green. Or if they are not in the city, going over hilly roads they'll ride the brakes down then hammer the throttle then brake instead of letting themselves get up to 85-90 and letting the truck decelerate a bit on the up part.

 

The colorado advertises 17/24 on the 4x4 so expect the tacoma to announce something higher than that within the next 60 days.

 

Or people who drive up on a truck in the slow lane, hit the brakes to slow to 55, change lanes, and then get back to 70mph. I can't stand it

 

Finally this thread has all the common 3rd Gen bullet points ticked off.
