4Runner MPG

I've been watching my gas milage lately just out of curiosity...Nightshade is my daily driver to work and all around town & I usually get 18.8 MPG....does anyone out there get the same??
2019 SR5 Premium 4x4.

 

I'm much heavier on the foot because... well because California traffic and cell phones. So I average less than you do. Your numbers look good.

 

Im averaging about 18-19 highway as my daily. One tank I got it at 21.6mpg. But considering a pedal commander to get that consistently?

 

Bone stock SR5 with Bridgestone dueler H/T tires set at 35psi. I drive like a turtle.....(I'm told), I'm getting consistent 20-22mpg.
The sticker on my truck when new said average fuel economy was=17city 19 highway, so 18mpg is right there at average.

 

19 mpg on a 2020 venture

 

Purely city driving, I get about 16-17 range. Road trips I average between 19-21.

 

Im at 17.2 mpg and just getting worse as I add stuff to the roof. At this point I'm not even worried about mpg anymore

 

Haha! That'll happen..

I'm between 16-18 lifted on 33's with armor. I can't really complain.

Before the suspension and tires, I was usually between 18-20, and occasionally a little higher or lower.

 

On my 2011 I get 13-14, all depends on how heavy my foot is that day.
On the 2018 my wife gets 16-18. Her foot not as heavy as my.
Both trucks are lifted

 

My best was 19.5 in Moab. My average around town is 14. I always wonder how slow y'all must be driving to get the higher numbers.

 

-65-ish to get 20+

-I got 17-19 cruising between 75 - 85 on stock size tires (highway only).

-all city is probably 15-16, but I'm not sure because I never go through a full tank without some highway driving.

 

Yeah my driving is almost 100% city.

 

That stop and go is a killer.

 

I have a 2020 Limited with about 3800 miles. My total avg MPG is 18.9. About two thirds of those miles were highway at high speeds, mostly in the 70s and a good bit in the 80s. Also a lot of hills. On those highway trips I’ve gotten an average of 20. In my experience I could get 21 or 22 at avg highway speeds in the high 60s or low 70s.

Car and Driver said they got 22 on their highway test of a 2019 TRD ORP. That test is a 200 mile loop at steady 75 MPH. My experience isn’t quite that good, but not far off either.

Daily around town driving with a lot of stop and go is about 14.

 

About 17MPG+ with 33’s mixed highway and city. The best I got was about 18.5MPG but that was all highway driving.

 

A few weeks ago, on a leisurely drive home from camping on mostly country 2 lane roads with speed limits varying from 35-55 mph, I noted 23.1 mpg on the readout. My actual calculated has been about 0.5 mpg less than the readout, so lets call 22.5 to be safe.

 

I also saw more than 23 on an hour long stretch at 45-55. The computer readout has been dead accurate relative to my calculations at the pump. (Which is a pleasant surprise. My last car always lied by about 1.4 mpg)

 

I've never reset the computer on my 18 4r sr5 4wd...it reads 19.6

My last road trip tank worked out to 21.2 mpg.

 

I get about 15. All on back roads. Some paved.

 

Check your speedometer with gps and radar. I never checked mine until after adding 285's. Now it's spot on. Mostly city with little hwy mix been getting 19-20

 

Good point about the accuracy of the speedometer and thus presumably the odometer and thus presumably the MPG reported by the computer.

I assume the speedometer and odometer are both based on the rate of wheel rotation, which of course varies if you run tires that are a different diameter from stock. The computer meanwhile measures how much gas has actually been metered by the system, then divides that into the assumed miles traveled.

FWIW, my Limited is on stock tires and roadside radar signs have been matching my speedometer. And as mentioned my computer MPG numbers have been dead on with my calculations at the pump. So I'd fully expect these numbers to be less accurate if I switched to larger tires.

 

I have had the same experience as @ForRun . since switching to 33's my speedometer has been perfectly accurate. Have you measured your speed against GPS? I would expect the Limited to ne the same as the other trims, but maybe the tires are slightly larger making them closer to accurate.

 

Good point. I'll compare it to GPS and report back.

 

Im getting 19-20MPG right now.

 

Was getting 19-20mpg average before lift and tires. Now, right under 17. I will say that speed hurts the MPG noticeably. Doing 80mph I am averaging 17mpg over certain distance. Dropping down to 65mph yields more than 3mpg more. If you care about fuel economy stay under 65mph as stated.
