Thumbs up Real Life MPG - 2418 trip miles

Real Life MPG - 2418 trip miles

I just got back from a business trip that covered 2418 miles.

No more than 50 miles was on a interstate highway

Numerous hours of idling while waiting to photograph animals

Around 300 miles on 4 wheel drive roads

4 days of driving in downtown Reno

About 1000 miles of wind of at least 30 miles per hour. Not a wind pushing me but most of the time coming from the side.

Trip MPG = 20.3

I'm getting 18.6, I have the Brush guard, skid plates, and rock rails maybe extra weight. How many miles total do you have? I'm only at 3,200.

I also have the skid plates and rock rails. I am a few miles short of 5,000.

I have an FJ Automatic with only a few accessories, roof rack, nerf, skid plate... I am only averaging around 17 MPG on a good day! I would guess my FJ is broke in with 8,000 K but I do live at an altitude of 5,800 feet and the wind blows and sucks here.
