You get 20mpg? I don't even get that in my Tacoma. Is that highway cruising? What is your around town mileage? You're 4wd right?
Yeah, I have a double cab4wd. That figure is what I get from my mpg meter when I'm on a perfectly level road doing 70mph with the cruise on. In a real life situation, it would never be possible to get 20 considering you have to accellerate to 70 where you would then get your best gas mileage. Toyota claims 19.

Since I got my truck in September of last year, I've left the mpg tracker untouched and so far I've gotten an average of 14.3 mpg. keep in mind I work 3 miles from home and run around town quite a bit so alot of that is city mileage. Top it off, I used to be a drag strip addict so my foot isn't always lead free.
