One possibility is that your engine is an exception, but as we can see from this thread the mean is around 18-19 mpg. So, it would be very practical to say that unless you've been getting 22+ mpg to begin with, there is no magic that will suddenly make 4Runner run 400+ on a tank, especially towing 1k load.
As it has been said about 20 times in this thread, your "miles per tank" figures mean nothing. Please figure out your MPG instead. Thanks.
