    Trade someone your fender and snorkel for their uncut fender + some cash? :confused:

    20mpg is better than 1/2 of tacoma world anyways. It bums me out seeing people complain about 20mpg in their tacomas.. I get 15-16 mpg in my 4cyl.

    IMO don't take the snorkel off. Deck plate mod FTW when you don't need your snorkel.

    That's a good lookin and well equipped truck. If you like the truck the way it is, leave it. You gotta pay to play and in this case it's at the pump. 20 mpg's isn't bad at all btw

    Thanks guys! Notes taken... haha! Anyway, i'm gonna leave it alone for now. I'm not worried about how many miles I put on it, I've already racked up 160k. I didn't get a raise when I switched locations with my job, so I was just trying to figure out a way to offset some of the cost. I guess 20mpg is pretty solid for what it is. I'm most likely gonna buy a small motorcycle to have some fun with and save some money...
