Default Re: 20 mpg How do you do it?

Brand new 2006 DC, 4X4 TRD with about 1200 miles on the clock. Worst mileage was 15.8. And that was going into the mountains, even using 4wd low on a trail. Most of that trip was on dirt roads as well. I got nearly 17mpg on my last trip to Denver and back + 100miles of city driving after my return. This is a stock 4x4. No tricks or mods. I seldom lead foot it. I went 75mph the entire 200miles to Denver and back. I expect better when the truck is broken in and I am not doing so much stop and go. Newer Tundras have 5 speeds. I am sure that helps. 39 years old and knows how to do basic math .
