1Gen-TundraGeneral discussion forum for the 2000 to 2006 Toyota Tundra.
This is a discussion thread titled "Tundra MPG's", within the 1Gen-Tundra forum, part of the Truck Forums category.
I got 15.34 last fill up that was about 50% highway. I have the 3.4L V6 with a snug top camper shell. Eeck, oh well, I love driving the truck over a neon that I have..

The downside of trying to squeeze every last mpg out of your Tundra is that it makes for a boring ride! Got a V8, but can't let it play so to speak! Driving around barely mashing the gas pedal just gets on my nerves sometimes. Still like to see what I can get every once in a while...Usually 14 to 15 city and 17 hwy. Best ever was 17.5 mpg running 65-70 mph on flat interstate.
with the gauge well above the 1/4 tank line, i have 277 on the trip , and its by far the best ive done, but i cheated and took a 2 hour interstate hop. i got to downshift into 'get the hell out of my way' mode several times, giving me the needed v8 fix, but congestion limited my speeds to under 80 mostly, keeping my guzzle factor lower than would have been. in town 14-16 best.

When I was on factory tires I averaged 18mpg. On the slightly larger A/T Revo's I average 15mpg. I tend to have a pretty light foot but that doesn't mean I won't stomp on it once in a while. I have to remind myself I have a V8 sometimes.

I get around 12-13.5...mostly highway. Got 06DC, 3" lift, 305's on 18's......wonder why it's so bad?? LMAO. It's a V8, drive it. If you want gas mileage get a Civic.
