Poor Gas Mileage
Just brought a 2004 Titan, 4x4, tow package, off road crew cab. I am concerned with my gas mileage.
Currently have 1400 miles on truck, travel 50 miles a day and 80% highway. Always keep the RPMs under 2000 rpm. On highway 1,750 rpm at 65 miles per hour. Tire air pressure 36 psi. Running on 87 octane gas. I have been driving this truck as easy as possible to see what type of gas mileage I am getting. When I fill up the tank I divide the gas into the miles driven so I know it is exact. I am averaging 11.1 mpg. Don't get me wrong I know this is a truck, however, I should be getting at least 13 or
14 mpg and when the engine breaks in I should be getting 16 plus. The truck goes in the shop tomorrow, my question is what about the dealer reflashing the computer? Any other things that they should check? I have read about the other mileages on other Titans on this forum and I know somehing is not right. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. This forum is the best!! Thanks. BOBBYO
