well, my point was that some of these people that are posting amazing numbers probably have over inflated tires, and dont even know it. also, altitude plays a small role in mpg, the higher up you are, the less air there is, albeit a small difference, and with the computers on these things that shouldnt be a difference at all.

When I got my Sequoia back from the dealer doing an oil change and tire rotation, I checked the tires and they were at 44 psi! I guess the tech looked at the sidewall on the Michelins and the weight rating was at 44 psi. That's after they put 5w30 in the crankcase instead of 0w20 or 5w20. He said it needed that in West Texas in the summer. I don't guess they ever look at the vehicle stickers that tell the inflation psi or the oil weight. I do try to keep my tires at 35 and I get 19 on 400 mile trips, if I'm not bucking a head wind. Town mileage is around 13-14.
