Gas Milage
I always wondered what the SA'd 1999 4Runner got for mileage, so I figured it out this time.
With 4.5" of lift, 35" tires and tipping the scale at 4800 pounds, it gets 16.5 MPG. That is also with the 2.7 and a 5-Speed. Not bad considering how much heavier it is and it has to roll those big tires.

that is pretty impressive..
i get 18 around town and 24 on the highway with my taco. I only have 31's though.. I dont drive much and a take of gas usually lasts me no less than 2 weeks.

Not bad Steve. I'm getting between 16-17 mpg with mine (city/highway mix).
