You should try using the fuelly phone app for a couple of months of fill-ups. Then you’ll know for sure.

If you drive it really slow you’ll get that 20 plus but let’s face it that turbo is hard to not let loose

Are you only going off of the trucks computer? My first fill up, the truck showed like 19 and the hand calculated mileage was actually 22.7. It hasn’t been close, so I don’t even look at that anymore.

I’ve been sitting right around 17mpgs for the first few weeks of having the taco. 285/75/18. Strongly considering different wheels to add some personality to her but that probably won’t help.
maybe they were onto something w the air dam?

Traffic, speed, and driving habits? Also watch your Boost gauge, keep it under 7.5lbs. It’ll improve a little after about 2-3k miles? Also turn off the PDA in the mid screen!

16 seems really low. ECO mode? Winter blend fuel also takes 1-2 MPG off. Furthermore running 87 octane reduces efficiency because the ECU pulls timing. My personal best MPG tank was running premium grade and summer blend.

My SR5 floats around 20-21 mpg. Had to drop it off at the dealership for some paint touchup and they gave me a TRD as a loaner and I noticed it's only averaging about 17 mpg.

I've had mine about a month and have been sitting under 14 MPG until this week when it crept up into the 16s. I don't drive aggressively and took the air dam off right away but MPG has been really poor so far.

My Sport was reporting the same mileage. I started calculating the mileage by hand and got better results. I have been using premium fuel lately and my mileage improved greatly. Freeway driving at 75 mph yielded 25 mpg. The few extra cents is definitely with it. Plus the vehicle seems to be more responsive when you get into the throttle.
