so with 2k down the drain and +33 x 8lb/gallon = 264lbs of extra weight and a person who's willing to add this to their 4runner must have tons of other gear tipping the 4runner weight to about 6k PLUS heavy ass off road tires.. now were looking at about 12mpg
53 gal tank x 12mpg = 636miles per tank(s)
20 gal tank x 17mpg = 340 miles per oem tank

Some interesting math. Only the added weight of the gas figures into the decreased mileage?
Comparing mpg of a stock 4Runner to the mpg of a vehicle with "tons of other gear" and then blaming the fuel weight.....
Frankly if you are down to 12 then you seriously need to re-gear, but that costs more $$$$
Lots of folks would say any/all/most mods are a waste of money. If it makes you happy, increases pride of ownership better functionality, and you can afford it, go for it...
