Terrible MPG

So the 5, 10, and 15k service was done by Scranton.
Previous owner likely took it somewhere else for the 20, 25, and 30k service, or did it himself

How does the oil look? Should look clean.
Is it a Toyota (black) oil filter or Fram? If Fram, previous owner probably took it to Walmart. If it's white, it's probably from Iffy Lube.

 

If its Fram rip that shit out as soon as you can, youd be better off using a fishing net to catch debris instead of that orange can.

 

what if it's a motorcraft filter

 

You really like tempting fate, putting Ford products in your Toyota.

I won't even say the word "Ford" within earshot of my Taco.

 

i also use ford oil..my taco haas ford blood muhahahhahha

 

Hope your AAA membership is paid up

 

I'll take a look at the oil. But it was a leased vehicle. So I'm sure the service was done there.

 

Yikes.

Get that hippy shit out of there!

First, welcome and congrats on your new Tacoma.

You should be worried/pissed with that gas mileage on a stock truck.

Im averaging 15 mpg's with several mods and even regeared to improve the crappy gas mileage.

Tom let's not offend Rich. I guess we should never talk about cleaning a MAF on a taco.

 

im lifted with steel bumpers on an 05 with 120k miles and still getting around 19mpg on thw highway. spark plugs and induction cleaning recommended.

 

not relly getting extra just gettin normal. i run advanced timing on my cars if possible my mustang has a base timing of 10 degrees btdc but i run about 18 degrees with the man trans but i still run the lowest grade gas i can without pinging usually 89

 

Sorry to derail. I use Fuelly but can not find an iPhone app for it. Do you have a link for the app? Thanks.

Definitely figure your gas out on the next few tanks. But if you're still getting 11 mpgs that certainly seems low. I have almost the same truck except I have the long bed. I also have 265/75-16 duratracs and lifted and I still get around 19.5 mpgs.

 

Gascubby has an iOS app, but they are consolidating with Fuelly. Fuelly is asking for volunteers to beta their iOS app.

 

I think somebody mentioned that before

 

So my 3rd tank is in and I got 19mpg on the 2nd but I drove quite calm.

 

Man, I wish I got 19mpg. 16mpg for me.

 

Me too. , 16 - 17
