Real World MPG with 5th Gen?

[kaitlyn2004]

2018 TRD OR, 285/70/17 BFG KO2’s C Load, Prinsu full length rack, steel skids.

Last tank went wheeling that’s why it is soo low.

What app is that? Looks like fuelly, but it doesn't look like the "fuelly web app" or "acar" in the play store..

Cruzing from Georgia to Florida I got 21.6 at 75 MPH, ran about 500 miles. Runner is bone stock on factory Dunlop’s, 5w30 in the engine and running premium gas.

 

[LA260]

19.2 average

I’m all stock now just about to lift. I have just under 3,000 on ODO- I’ve seen 22 with cruise on the hwy but average 16 in town.
Does mileage improve after getting them broken in?

Looks like the OBDLink app - used with a bluetooth OBD dongle like the OBDLink MX, or MX+.

Can display a wide range of data from the OBD system, including real time TPMS data

HTF is everybody getting such amazing mileage? lol Last 4 tanks have an average of 15L/100kms which equates to about 15 mpg. 90% of the mileage is straight city -minimal highway and no wheeling.

Fuel consumption is according to ScanGaugeII.

Bigger tires crush your fuel economy.

When my 4Runner was still stock I averaged 19 - 21 MPG
I lost about 1 MPG when I put my Gobi rack on - so 18 - 20 MPG
I got rid of the stock Dunflops and put on 265/70/17 BFG KO's load range C (+7 lbs on the wheels) and lost another two MPG - So 16 - 18 MPG
I recently added an Ironman Stage 2 Suspension, SCS wheels and Cooper XLT's 285/70/17 load range E and lost another MPG (+4 lbs on the wheels). I now basically get 15-17 MPG per tank depending on how much highway driving I'm doing.

lies all lies :biggrin1: joking aside.

I get sh!t mileage (8 years avg 15.7 not modded : ) these trucks get sh!t mileage UNLESS you wax regularly, light tires on light rims, not oversize, religiously pray to ECO mode, among a few other things.

While I do like getting good gas mileage, I certainly didn't buy this truck to drive like an economy car else I would have bought one of those.

I get a kick out of this thread, I can understand the "challange" of getting the best mileage possible out of a 5500 pound aerodynamic-less metal box, some of this is just ridiculous

I'm just pleased that my 5th gen gets essentially the same MPG as the much lighter, smaller, less powerful 3rd gen I had.

 

[ForRun]

19 hwy city mix. I went P rated 285 and a lighter than oem rim (FN) - level and tires lost zero mpg. Oh, 285s made the speedometer spot on so not sure what the deal was stock size, never had a reason to check speedometer

I average upper 17's with 265/17r16 e-rated wrangler silent armors in my 99' nut no modifications. I have close to an extra 700 lbs in this truck too so. You're not far off. LOL I want to say the monroney sheet said first gens get the same mileage as they do now

Mostly city driving, lifted with 285 E's. Not particularly loaded down.

My average is about 14.5/100Km’s so you’re pretty close.
Not great, but not terrible.

2 Weeks ago, it seemed like it. That was in Riverside, and NOAA recorded the same temp.
