Reason Im asking is I drive 100 miles a day to work etc and need to see how bad its gona be I get 17.5 with a SE with BT K&N cat back and snug top toneue with 3K miles on the odometer prob gona get better when the motor fully breaks in.

SO i fu would be so nice as to list the following so I and others it would be apreicated

Lift
Wheel tire size
driving style
options u have on the truck ** MOds, BT, etc**
what kind of drive u do city freeway mix


Thanks in advance

13 mpg when I first bought it, now with over 10,000 miles on the odometer the last tank I got 15 mpg and damn proud of it.
Of course most of my everyday driving is on country roads with lots of hills and curves.
I didn't get a whole lot better with my 2001 Tacoma double cab.

Titan 4X4 CC LE off road with big tow package . this last tank I got 15.68 mpg now thats driving miss daisy speed. I never got the truck over 2000 rpm's on take off and cruising. more than half of these miles were city...very pleased right now and hoping with a bed cover I'll get better and maybe a Kand N air intake in the future will help...

Im a Wild land Fire Fighter for the US forrest service. Prob is I live in Rivrside and have to drive to victroville. I pray for fires and hotels so I can keepthe miles down.


Man 12.6 MPG that would kill me SOB. I guess I need to get a beater to ride to work. Im so used to performance cars with a stick shift and mods that improved HP and MPG. The titan is a heavy PIG but man do i love her so.
