    Just wondering how many Tacoma owners , Only drive there truck on the weekends . My truck is used very little during the week , I walk or commute to work via train or subway . My 2012 sport just hit the 11, 000 mark today . Not too concerned regarding the mpg 's , I fill my truck on the average about twice per month .

    I fill up about 2 times a month also, drive very little to work only like 4 miles a day round trip and most things are close for on the weekend, only have put 3000 miles on my truck in 7 months! (I drive 40k+ for my day job a year). But I still love driving my taco!

    I was working 10 miles from home. Just moved to another facility that is 45 miles from home so I bought a commuter car. The truck gets driven occasionally.

    If all works out in my favor, I will get a promotion and a raise and go back to the 10 mile commute.

    Mine sits during the week. Have almost 8,000 on my 2013, but I live miles from anywhere.
