    Yeah and note the hills in the background. Spend 50% of my time at like 45 degrees.

    Just out of curiosity, what did you expect your MPG to be - averaging 15mph with 50% of the distance being on inclines of 45 degrees? FWIW, I don't even look at my fuel economy when I'm crawling around on hills, but I bet it's not any better than yours :)

    Nice FJ BTW!

    That's what I get on the city stop and go traffic.
    However I get around 21 to 22 mpg on the highway. These trucks are very sensitive to the pedal. At first I was using the ECO light at the city and was getting maybe 12 or 13 mpgs but the driving is so boring man, after a turned off the ECO light I feel like I was set free, so much enjoyable feeling of the torque. Mpgs dipped and went back to ECO, no way, too boring, shut it off for good. Now I jusy try to gather a few errands and save that way and enjoy the rides free of the ECO thing. Just my personal experience...

    i'm most confused by the fact that you're using miles for distance but Celsius for temperature.

    Where are you located?
