Huh? They said they are getting 19mpg... What does babying it have to do with anything?
Thanks! I have not figured out which bed cover I like yet. She is in an inside the garage truck, but will wait to see what comes out for the 4th gen.
Toyota app. The app just had a bit of a redesign in the last week.
Not an engineer. Spent a long career in sales management for Pharma companies. Guided my son to become an engineer! He is currently in his first year at Texas A&M. He is looking at computer or electrical engineering. How about you?
Tank size has no part of the calculation for fuel economy. Fill it up, drive and fill up again. Divide the number of miles between fill-ups by the number of gallons it took.
I don’t have mine in hand yet, but the guys from TFL off-road were saying they were getting around 260 per tank on average through a variety of driving conditions.
That's why I call it the fuel guessometer. One nice thing is you can have your trip A & trip B displayed at the same time if you wish. I use my trip A for my fuel tank milage and trip B for any trips I want to track.
When I just filled up the estimated mileage for the truck said 275. I know it will do about 325 or so in normal mode in city driving, no towing etc. That is running the tank to about an 8th of a tank.
Right, that's what I was trying to point out. The MPG range estimation on fill up seems drastically under estimated lol. Not a very good "estimate"
Sure, they also have been towing and off-roading with it. I think their definition of variety of conditions is a little different than most, but we will see when more reports come in.
I typically state that I babied it when describing my MPG when trying to squeeze every last bit of MPG out of my car. Baby means being as smooth as possible on the throttle. It looks like my commute of mixed freeway and surface streets equals around 20.2MPG and a range of ~300 miles. I did squeak out 325 last week on a trip with 6 miles or reported range left. I will be filling up again Tomorrow morning and will report in the MPG page again. The sport mode is fun and has decent throttle response which will effect your MPGs.
I definitely drove it in Eco mode like I was trying to save fuel. No fast starts etc. Driving normally in Normal mode. Not punching it from a start, but it does go a bit quicker from a start in Normal vs ECO modes.
I got 374 miles last tank and have yet to put in more that 16.5 gallon on refill.
