    2019 2.7 SR5 ACLB 4x4 AT, bone stock (for now!). I tend to average 20-21mpg for my daily driving, down to 19mpg when I cruise along I90 and through Snoqualmie pass at 80mph :rolleyes:

    Best I've done is 26mpg driving the highways from I5 out to the Oregon coast. Little traffic, low speed limits, and fairly flat ground do wonders for mpg!

    Between 13 to 15 mpg, but it's carrying between 6,800 to 7,300 lbs constantly.

    I’m really fortunate that I live 7 miles from work. I get 3 weeks out of a tank. Yesterday I filled from below a 1/4 tank and it cost $92 (Canada). Ouch

    Hope you take it on longer drives a couple times a week, a 7 mile drive isn’t enough to get the engine up to operating temp and get all the moisture out

    Oooh, may I suggest an alternate idea for good weather days? Seven miles is doable:

    That’s pretty good considering you’re carrying a tiny home on your back.

    Thanks! But you didn’t ask how slow I drive. But to achieve this I’m working hard at maximizing gas mileage, like driving 50 mph in a 55 zone, shifting low, accelerating slow, etc. I’m driving around Europe now where the price of gas ($7-8 per gallon) results in a fill up of $200 - seriously. That’s usually at least a 100 liters of fuel

    Not true. As long as the engine hits its operating temperature, which it does, there’s zero harm. Been doing that drive for 36 years and have never had a single engine issue on any vehicle. Just sold my Camry that spent allot of its life doing that trip with 300,000km on it. Never used a drop of oil.

    I just made a quick 680 mile r/t trip with only 150 miles freeway on each leg. I have a 3.5 stock engine with stock wheels+tires. We had ~550 lbs of dudes and ~800 lbs of gear and tools. Initially I thought I had 900 lb back there but hindsight is 20/20. I got 23.4 mpg going down. Coming back with about 100 lbs less I got 23.7+ mpg including 2 tense hrs @ ~40 mph in a torrential rain plus 4 days of daily driving back home to finish off the tank. I mathed the mpg figures, but guessed the weight.

    Just noticed you said miles not km, ha. Never mind, that’s definitely fine. My commute is 17 km to work and it has plenty of time to get to operating temps.
