2013 4runner gas mileage getting much worse?

Since you noticed a "change", I would suspect a maintenance item might be to blame.

Simple things like air filters and plugs. Dirty fuel injectors. Dirty MAF and/or throttle body (both easy to clean). Bad o2 & F/A sensors. Tire inflation pressures, etc.

More complicated things like wheel bearings, brake drag, etc.

I get 19.3 everywhere. It dipped a little when my throttle body was dirty and when I ran lower tire pressure.

FPNI, start with basic maintenance and a little love.

Change oil, air filter, clean MAF, throw a bottle of BG/Techron/etc in the tank, and most of all—sparkplugs. And spring for the double iridium ones while you’re at it.

That’s all I got
 
Gas mileage Is definitely more efficient at altitudes, that's probably 90% of your "problem," if not all of it.

OP, you did not clarify where at sea level you are at.
But I am with Electro Boy on this. Being from SoCal our fuel blends change from winter to summer. (AQMD rules) this effects MPG.
I also agree with adding or buy fuel that contains Techron to keep your injectors clean. I have done this for years and believe that it works.

I am not familiar with Colorado fuel but do they have season blends for there gas? I have been to Denver and if they don't they should.

Ethanol added to gas helps with emission but it hurts MPG.
