Went to the gas station today, 164 miles on the tank, took 13.5 gallons to refill with topping off. I filled it for the first time since buying it last week and topped it of then and rest the tripometer at the same time. That's 12.15 MPG. About 40 miles or so of this past tank were highway miles too.
I have a 99 SR5, 3.4, Auto., Highlander with 265/75/16 Duratracs on it. 191K miles. Any advice? MPG seems way too low to me. I'm 33 years old so I don't drive it with my foot through the floor either.
Also, I know the gas gauges in these can be off. How big are the gas tanks on these?

I have a 1999 SR5, 3.4L V6, Auto 4runner and the owner manual says 18.5 is the tank. The empty light on mine comes on at around 13. So usually I fill up at about 14-15. I am only getting 16.8, which isn't too bad, but I was expecting more as well.
Hate how the light comes on so early, freaks me out.
