462! Is the bleeding best I've gotten here on flat TX highways 60-70mph in 50-75 degree weather.
Computer reads 22.2mpg
I was very concerned about running dry but was running late to work. (i do see the irony of what could have been, usually fill @ 1/4 tank, 360's at that point.)

Wow, that's like awesome! Right on par with what the spec sheet says, you should've gotten 480 has you bleed it dry, ((360/3)*4)
2008 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4dr SUV 4.0L V6 5-speed Automatic Features and Specs
I must say, i'm a bit jealous because the MOST I get is 300 to the tank,V6 etc etc so that's like what a 180 mile per tank difference!
I guess I'll just chalk that up to my monster 265/70 AT tires & super bright 8000k HID lights that run on unleaded.

Similar to the mpg readout, its inaccuracy is pretty consistent (at least near the end of the tank) so can be useful if the necessary adjustment is established.

No extra cargo just stock
K&N air filter

Always in 2WD mode
MAF cleaned every 20,000 miles
Plus I 98% highway driving.

the 390 I got in Sacramento a few years ago....driving highway at about 60 -65. I think the higher octane gases here in California are quite advanced. When I run 91 in my Miata it flys.
Since I came down here I drive faster typically 70 -80 on the highways. I will usually get 300 -320 per tank here at those speeds. Mostly flat to the Mexican border and back 3xweek.
With the OEM (265/65/17) tire size i was getting 400-430 miles per tank, with my current tires (265/70/17 BFG AT's), it has dropped to approximately 350-370 (via the computer) Which one do i really trust??? I have no idea, i haven't used a GPS to see which tire size actually gives me the correct distance and speed. Based off the Seattle PD radar things, the 265/70/17's give a "more accurate" reading on the speedometer than the original 265/65/17s....
Keep in mind I have a small lift, Perkins bumper and a full Yakima roof rack that is not helping my mileage at all..

someone do the math, as I'm a Canuck.
i'm a bit perturbed at my mileage.
430km on 70 litres. Thats 90% hwy. never killing it, never going over 110km/hr (@60-65mph).
03, v8 ltd runner. about 120k miles on her.

18 MPG should cover the island just about.
My wife lived there and her sister was born there.
