ok, this will help us know if there is something wrong in terms of gas consumption: pls identify city%-highway% driving. Also, miles/gallon or km/liter.

Mine is 16mi/gal. 20% city, 80% hway driving. Heater on since its starting to be cold here in canada.

 

just to add- 31 inch tires 4.56 gears.

 

14 MPG. Uphill, downhill, tailwind,headwind. 31" tires, A/T 95 Limited

 

15-16 MPG stop and go. Up to 20 on the highway.

Tiny tires w. 4.88s.

Best I've ever done was about 280 miles on about 14 gallons of gas doing %100 hwy driving. So 20mpg was the best. That's with my 2wd, 31 inch tires and 3.90 rear. Most the time, I go about 220-240 miles on a tank of gas, so usually around 18 I guess. That's about 70% hwy (~60mph) and 30% city.

With my 3.90 rear and 31 inch tires, I'm turning about 1800 rpms at 55 and 2400 at 70mph. Sure is slow though.

 

I am with 4x4lamm--I get 15-17 with factory 4.88's and 33x10.5 at tires....

That is why I bought a VW fox as a daily driver..34mpg is much better on th wallet.

 

16 city, 18-21 highway, 35's, 4.88.





Sorry

 

I have a 95 4wd 4runner 5speed i get about 12-14 i do about 70% highway and 30% city but i live in washington so its hilly and it sucks gas up quicker than anything i now!! And i dont drive fast at all!! i am sitting in 31 with a 2" bodylift and custom steel rear bumper so that i imgine effects it. I wish i could get better gas mileage but i havent heard of anyway's!!

 

keep it going guys! im starting to feel relieved by the fact that my 4runner is still on the average gas mileage!

 

18mpg. 70% city and 30%hwy.

 

i'm getting 18 city and 22-23 high way. i was getting 15 city and 19 highway.
i took off the roof rack, put some manual hubs on, i did the air box mod and, i leaned out the VAFM, and i'm doing the Intake Silencer Removal Mod next. I think that if do enough mods i could get her up to 25 highway.

 

I have a 94 4runner that sits on 33in tires and i get about 200-220 to a tank. it usually breaks down to about 12-14 miles a gallon. mine sucks bad. but hey, its not always the mileage, its about the vehicle you want to drive. im happy. ill bite the bullet.

 

I'm averaging about 15mpg. I think I have 4.88's? Whatever stock is. How are you guys averaging so high?

 

exact same on mine...

 

Averaging 16 mph, 50/50 city/highway. Can get 18 highway. Auto trans.

 

14mpg around town (driving like I stole it)
23mpg highway (grannying it)

 

4:88 gears, 36 inch tsl's. 150-160 miles per tank.

 

i'm sure on mine. But it's probably about 12.5-14..i need a new o2 sensor and a new exhaust. I've got 33's and mmm not sure what gears. auto-27 from factory.

 

freshman, I think your gas mileage would be better if it had the stock sized tires on it. Im pretty sure that the auto v6's with 4.56's had the tiny 225/75s or whatever. yota's that came with 31's and an auto had 4.88s. Im in the exact same boat as you, with 31's and 4.56's. My spare is one of the little ones though, so im not running stock sized tires. Your gas mileage is better than mine though, im getting about 13 tops on the highway.

 

I get about 220 miles to the tankful - no matter what.
I have the 4:56 gears and 31" tires - I would probably do better with 4.88 gears but it ain't to bad. Not gonna change it yet.
