That's the rub isn't it. The Toyota 3.5 V-6 is a high revving engine. Makes all the power and torque somewhere north of 4500 rpm. So if you drive it there the MPG falls off. But if you drive it to get the advertised 20MPG, then its a sluggish dog.

So true. When I test drove the 3.5 V6 back when I was looking to buy, my wife asked what the gas mileage was and the salesman was quiet for a second or two then said, "Yeah, we don't like to talk about that."
