Hey gang,

What kind of MPG's are you guys getting?

jhip · #2 (**permalink**) 04-29-2008, 07:51 PM

I'm getting a whopping 14mpg! LOL

I'm getting about 15-16 with my small pick up and I only drive from Manoa to sand island. Your Tundra; is it a Double Cab?

I'm getting 11-13 mpg. The lift, tires, and camper top does not help one bit on getting more MPG. At $4.21 per gallon it hurts.

Just filled up at Costco; 3.66 a gallon. Holy crap! 4.21! But at least you guys can utilize the lifts and campers. Honolulu, only for show.

Got a Crewmax 5.7 and have not noticed any gas mileage improvements with the intake and exhaust combo...

I'm probably getting less than 14 mpg. On Maui there's not enough lanes to get the Big V8s into overdrive for a good distance. Most of my driving might be city miles. I might be able to get it to 60 mpg for about 3 minutes before someone takes up the fast lane going below the minimum, or Taguma decides to empty his ticket book.

I'm getting 13 city (just around Kailua-Kona) and about 15 & 16 highway (between Kona and Hilo via saddle road). I try to keep my rpm below 2300 most of the time. I have an '02 4x4 access cab, stock with 54K miles and use mobil 1 with regular maintenance. Still love my Tundra, though mopeds are starting to look really good now days.

I get about the same. But, I guess you could say I drive a bit more spirited... Ok. I tend to give it the beans pretty often.

before the lift and tires, 10-12 mpg.
after, I don't want to know!!

How are you guys calculating MPG, by filling up and doing the math or by using a device (such as a scanguage)?

I got 20.3 MPG cruzing around the island on what the scanguage says.

filling up and doing the math

filling up and doing the math i get around 13 just going to work and back, and mid 14s if I mix a bit of freeway driving with it. If you drive it like a hybrid you should be able to get even more.
