Truck vs 4Runner

Seems like the better mileage cases tend to be the truck, vs the 4Runner. If true, I suspect the weight difference is enough to account for 1-2mpg.

Probably should redo at some point, limiting to trucks and another limited to 4Runners. Sigh... maybe next year.

I have only owned mine about a month. I recently took mine upover the pass on I5 from Riverside to Bakersfield. I was pulling a small trailer with my quad. I was going gopher hunting on a friends ranch. I got 18.3 MPG on the way there and 18.5 MPG on the way back. I was really surprised and happy as well. After reading alot of posts here I was expecting alot worse. I figure if I was not pulling the trailer I could have got high 19's. I was going 70 to 75 MPH.
