I haven't been in here for a while....

Today I pulled out my '08 cache of receipts and updated the spreadsheet. Here's what I found when the calculations were done.
2007 FJ 4x4 automatic
My driving is a mixture of city and highway, with more in-town. On weekends, the truck is loaded to the roof with equipment. No more than 1500 km total with a trailer or boat.

From my first fillup on July 27/06, I've put on 41,116 km to date.
All gas has been regular, except for two tanks of high test, but no ping or knock has been experienced.
I've used 5132.705 litres of fuel, for a total cost of $5193.63
My gas mileage overall is 22.62 mpg Cdn, or 18.83 US.
I've met all of the scheduled maintenance and have nothing but positives to say about the truck. Lots of tread on the original tires at 41,116 km, and more than 65% of the original brake pads left. Not a single thing has gone wrong with any aspect of the truck, a far cry from the previous 30 years of GM vans, Astros, Blazers, Jimmys.

No paint flaking or chipping. No rust. Outside, it still looks like new with minimal effort. The seats are mint, showing no wear whatsoever- a great fabric! The only complaint I have is a lousy quality connector on the trailer hitch/light hookup.

After 21 months of ownership, I can still say it is the best vehicle I have ever owned.

(For those who read this yesterday and saw the high mpg figure: I knew something had to be wrong. Seems I had another stack of receipts to enter- my mistake. This is now complete and up-to-date)
