Funny how you're now just trying to find fault in my words instead of actually trying to figure out what's could be wrong with your vehicle or your driving habits.

No, you are simply not telling the truth. 370 miles per tank of fuel on a Taco? You expect a 4Runner to get the same? or even remotely close? I would venture to say that 250 to a tank is about average for 4Runners with the 3.4 auto. With a stick they might make 300 with normal driving. Still, not very likely. 600lbs if not more, makes a huge difference. Towing or not, weight is weight.
I think what is funny that you are backed into a corner and just want to blame others for either maintenance issues or poor driving habbits. I have illustrated to you that my truck is in good running condition. I rarely let it go above 2500 RPM while accellerating and cruise between 62-75 on the freeway. My driving mix is 40 town and 60 highway yet I always manage to get between 15-16 MPG. On the highway, the very best I got while driving 65-70 on cruise control was 313 per tank. It came out to be roughly 18.2 MPG.
