Default Re: Towing MPG ?

Probably no big fixes. Make sure you are running clean oil and the air filter is not dirty. Try a little higher octane fuel as well. Bump your tire pressure a couple pounds, especially in the rear. Keep your foot out of the throttle as much as you can.

I run Amsoil synthetics in the engine, front, center and rear diffs. TRD air filter, but I also have a Magnaflow cat-back too, which hurts low-end torque slightly. All of these things combined might improve mileage, might not.
