18 MPG & 306 Miles (No Gas Light)

Made a concerted effort to fill the take as much as possible. Tank was just off of E, light just came on. The pumped auto-clicked off at 14.5 gallons, I was then able to slowly dribble fuel in all the way to 17.00 gal exactly. Tank was so full that a small pool was sitting at the top of the neck.
99' Limited - Completley Stock (135k miles)
Stock size tires at 35psi
70% freeway (+\- 60 mph) 30% in town stop and go
AC on 90% of the time
Fresh oil change and brand new Toyota air filter

I pulled into the gas station at 306 miles, guage was couple ticks above E with no gas light on.

Equates to exactly 18 MPG. Not the best mileage but it runs flawlessly.

17 city, recently clocked 24 on a trip from Medford to Bend with my custom CAI and AFE filter, and 25 from Burns back to Medford, auto with stock gearing and tires, it was in the high 90's-low 100's...



3" mandrel aluminum tube with a silicone hump coupler and reducer, wrapped in reflective heat barrier, as is the air cleaner, keeps AIT a little over ambient, think it helps with the mpgs, and it growls like a mofo..

Whose gas mileage sucks the most? I barely get 200 miles with a full tank on my 98 4runner. 265/70/16 tires. I've almost given up trying to figure it out.

That's not that abnormal to others.
