Long Live Atkinson Cycle

I've now had my DCSB trd Sport MT for a week now and loving it. My Taco has exceeded my expectations especially the fuel milage. My first tank(80 liters)is empty and have 600km(375miles). Now I traded my 05 Tundra 2wd 4.7 and it went 600km on a 100 liter tank. What's interesting is I weighed both trucks (4400lbs) and they are within 10lbs. Love this very efficient yet powerful Atkinson 3.5 V6.

 

Manual transmission seemed to help... Some autos are getting an average of 14-16 mpg lol.

 

I got 14.7 mpg on my first tank, but I drive it like I stole it.

 

I should add that my first tank was a mix of city and hwy and had the engine up to 5500rpm at least a dozen times (couldn't resist).

 

WTF is a liter?

 

Doesnt anyone else wish you could choose to get less mpg and have more power?

 

Damn. Beat me to it. Lol

 

Not mine 21 mpg mixed driving. My 2nd gen got about 17 mpg doing the exact same thing.

 

Same here

 

I'm getting 20-21 mpg average with city/highway mix. A/T has a better mpg rating than M/T for 2016. This is my mpg to/from work:

 

Less hearsay, more data!

It's the unit of measurement for countries that haven't been to the moon.

 

If I'm doing a lot of city driving I get about 17mpg but my typical work home gym lifestyle I average 19. Not too bad on the wallet since I'm finally able to use 87 octane

 

Really?
The same units measuring the displacement of all engines which is about a quart.
Most young Canadians haven't even heard of a quart. We have our new fearless leader's Father to thank for that.
If it hadn't been for Ronald Reagan, you guys would be metric as well.

 

Iv only had mine since Friday. I got 22.xx mpg on my first tank and am at 24 mpg on my second tank. However, I look for that to change when I add my Buckshot II Mudders today.

 

Back and forth to work going 45-55 I get around 21-26. Overall average of 21. First highway trip going 75-80 with wind i got 18 over 850 miles and struggled to maintain speed. Around town power is decent.
