What’s Your MILEAGE?

Bought October 2018 1500 miles.

 

21 months old and just about to turn 20k. More importantly is its almost paid off, balance is around $1500!

 

What size and what’s your average MPG now?

 

I personally have 33’s and my average at 70mph with cruise on is about 13 MPG. If I jump that up to 75 MPH I get about 11-12 MPG.

 

I’ve got 33x11.5 and I’ve burned about half a tank around town with a little bit of highway on that setup and my truck reads 16.6 avg

 

Ugh. I have 265/75/16 Toyo’s on my truck, but get about 18. Thinking about 33’s but I average 3500k a month and worried about the MPG

 

Currently 350 miles, 26.4 mile round trip to/from work. Bought 12/29/2018. AVG 23 mpg

 

Purchased new in Aug. 2007, DC 4X4 AT, 4.0. Currently 194,000 miles. Replaced the alternator about a year ago and that is the only real repair. Just replacement of tires, battery, oil, brakes etc. It's been from GA across the Rockies as far as the Utah/Nevada border 3 times. I've had LT 265/75/16's on it for a while and get 16-17 mpg for my normal everyday driving and 19-20 hwy.

It was my daily driver/hunting truck until almost 3 years ago when I bought an F150 Supercrew 4X4. Love the Taco, but there were times when it was just too small. My wife now uses it as her daily driver and I now drive the Honda she used to drive for daily commuting and short trips. The big Ford gets used when needed.

 

I used to have the same size (265-70-17) and I never got close to 18 MPG. I’m guessing I must just drive like a nut case. Perhaps your efficiency won’t be as terrible as mine. Even when the truck was nine stock I was only getting around 17-18 on the highway.

 

2018- bought it in April of 18. Currently have a little over 35,200 miles.

 

I just crossed 38k, you are on pace with me! I’ve got another trip up north later this month and Mojave Road in March! Fun stuff

 

2019 Tacoma TRD Pro. Traveled from South Fl to North GA. Average 15.4 mpg and average highway speed 75. Stock truck. Not use to paying for gas. Company car for 30 years and never paid for gas. What a shock! Seriously, why havent Americans protected like in France?

 

Almost to 14k . Purchased the truck June of 17.

 

Welcome to TW!

 

Bought 3/2017 and 6800 miles so far.

 

Thank you! I live in Missouri as well.

 

I know the feeling! Gas is cheap here and I’m still spending minimum $100 a week on gas for work.

 

In my opinion if you are worried about MPG’s, don’t get bigger tires. Me personally I know I would have to sacrifice efficiency for the large tires but I didn’t mind. This truck even with its poor fuel economy has been my most efficient vehicle to date, all others have been gas guzzling v8’s.

 

Sikeston here. I bowhunt as well.

 

Very true
