NJ B.S. Thread

Once upon a time my truck actually saw 22 MPG but that was highway mileage on 245s

 

I saw 17 mpg once back when I was on 275/55/r20. Ran 5 tanks of premium to verify any mileage improvement. I saw none. During that time I drove the same roads, same speeds. Just saw normal fluctuations. I typically get better mileage on my trips into NJ then I do heading to PA. Prevailing winds probably. Now I average 14.3 with correction for speedo error.

 

20s??? were you this guy?

 

No. Just had s spacer lift. Wheels and tires were from PO

 

I'm getting about 12 mpg

 

Is that adjusted for larger tires?

 

With or without adjustment for speedo error?

 

27???

 

Very scientific data there bud!

 

I didnt adjust anything. I wonder if I can??

 

You have to take into consideration that larger tires turn less times per mile and factor that error into your calcs.

 

yea! 27 stock, no extra weight for bumpers or anything else. That was highway, when I was going down to Tail of the Dragon, NC. Might have been a small tailwind

 

I just want to plug in gas price/odometer, etc and get a final MPG figure

 

Then you need to have your speedo recalibrated.

 

You wanna wheel friday?

 

That's adjusted comes in around 11 without

 

Damn I've still yet to hit 20mpg on any tank and I'm stock. While I'd love to have actually good fuel economy, I knew going in that a Tacoma is utter shit on gas.

Sunday may be free. I know Friday all day and night I've got plans. Saturday unsure right now. Depending on Saturday plans and what time y'all were looking to meet up on Sunday, I may be down.

 

Damn...that sucks.

 

I found some ECU piggybacks that run about $200

 

It's probably all your Stickers. I hear they really bring down your mpg's
