Not really - go try it and post your timeslips.

Hopefully, the 3.5K to 4.5K RPM power dip can be "fixed" as well. Interested to see how people are tackling that.

Yup - that is wheel horsepower on our 6 month old Dynojet 424xLC2 Linx dyno.

I'm 6MT and getting 27. Filling Ultra 94 since I got it, besides the 91 the dealer put in off the lot.

107.9 km journey from the edge of the city, through the foot hills to the edge of the mountains, pretty hilly, 100-110kph. 5.0 litres/100km. 46.9 miles/USG! Premium 91AKI

got a manual

purely highway, i average 36-37mpg. I have seen 40 on 2 trips.
around town i can get 30 cruising in 6th gear, or the highest possible gear for the speed.

recently put on an intake and haven't calculated yet. I'm happy enough with the mileage as is, lol.

Dan86 · 10-01-2012, 03:56 PM

I didn't read all the posts, and I'm sure someone posted it, but I will say it anyways. The 4th 5th and 6th gears are slightly taller on the AT. Less acceleration, but better fuel consumption.

jeebus · 10-01-2012, 04:05 PM

My MT average over 3000 miles is 28.5 MPG. This is all mixed driving, 40% city, 40% canyon, 20% hwy. Plenty of traffic. I drive pretty hard too.

I've gotten over 30 MPG on a few tanks. I have not done ANY all hwy trips, but I have little doubt that mid 30s would be easy to accomplish.

carbonBLUE · 12-09-2012, 11:47 AM

I can average around 42-45 doing 60mph AT on the freeway
my combined is 30.7 with lots of traffic(sit in traffic stop and go at least 20 min every day), 20 miles of city driving(also a lot of stop and go traffic), and 60 miles of highway

ive seen my indicator hover around 55 mpgs doing 45 mph in 6th

I don't know if I'd trust the computer computing my MPG average. My 4Runner typically tells me I get 3-5 MPG better than I actually get when I go to the gas station, fill up, take note of the # of gallons, take the distance traveled since the last fill up, and divide by the gallons filled.

I'm not positive how the in-car computes MPG, but it is not by any means exact.

I average 31 mpg. The best I have done is 39 mpg with the manual.

Gixxersixxerman · 07-04-2013, 05:04 PM

In my trips on highway I can get 41+ combined in Vegas traffic depending on how much I care! I can get a best around 35 city, worst around 29-30.. At the track 9.5 to 10.7

TylerLieberman · 07-04-2013, 06:48 PM

I'm MT as well. 91 octane. I get around 27 in the city. On the highway, I managed almost 37. Combined, is right around 31.

5th 86 · 07-04-2013, 11:05 PM

For you guys getting 30+mpg, are your cars modded at all or stock? Cause i noticed ehen i put a fee parts on i lost mpg but thats probably cause i like using the extra power and i dont try and save gas at all i just stay above 3000rpm cause i like to be in the power band more. Think i am getting around 22 combined
