    2015 4x4 DC TRD Sport. I can get 22mpg in the freeway. Right now my commute is 100% city and get 14MPG. When combining city and freeway I would say 18MPG is a good estimate.

    My 2008 2.7L Base, Manual Trans, 2dr. gets 17-19mpg most of the time. I drive in and through town in 10 mile increments of stop and go all of the time. This past week, I took a 3 hour trip where my average speed was over 55mpg on mixed road types, and got an impressive 21.33mpg.
    With my past 3 vehicles, I have noticed that a bottle of Lucas Fuel Treatment (at recommended dose) will extend my mileage by almost 1 mpg. It's not something I use every tank, but I do like for the results, which can pay for themselves.

    If you want to compare to any of my crazy high mpg results. Try 55 mph, I achieved 28 mpg on a trip once.

    Is that the long term full trim? Mine is basically a straight line 80% of the time. I guess that's why it's good?

    Just changed back to stock tires/lift, driving an easy 65/70 on the highway. 20.3 mpg. That will work for me.

    Yes I noticed the graph change on hills. But pretty much when I'm just cruising along it basically just stays about in the middle. At this point I've just decided my taco loves me haha

    The graph is for every fill up. I’m not to worried about mpg I just like to keep track.

    I really hate the winter gas. We haven't had any real snow yet so I haven't had to use 4wd either. I just filled up after 3 weeks of around town driving and it came out to 12.35 mpg. Why bother having a 4 cyl if it's going to get such lousy gas mileage. My 2009 Silverado with the 5.3, AT, 6" lift and 35" tires got the same gas mileage in winter. :(

    Just filled up, all 10-minute commutes, winter temps, winter gas: 15.9mpg.

    I did a road trip into the Colorado mountains a couple of months ago, 23mpg. But, out was climbing from 6200ft to about 10,000ft, the return return reversed that profile, downhill almost all the way...

    I was in Ohio last winter doing a series of short trips, and my mileage absolutely bombed, 13-14 mpg. Back in Colorado this winter and it doesn't seem too bad so far....
