TFL just confirmed MPG for hybrid

That 1794 interior black/brown is sharp! Wonder how soon I could get non-chrome replacement parts (grill/trim, etc...)

 

Of course, it is a consideration. But expecting the Tundra to somehow be better than the competition isn't realistic. Eventually we bump against the laws of physics, in a truck platform this is more true than a passenger car. We expect a truck to have a nice payload and to tow well - both of those require power which translates into fuel burn. An empty vehicle on an open road is very different, it's relatively easy to get 'great' MPG. Once you tow all the platforms have poor MPG (aside from Diesel maybe.) And don't expect to tow all day with an EV! Those batteries will be dead weight in no time.

This guy is suggesting the Tundra HYBRID will get about 7 or 8 mpg (combined) better than the non-hybrid.
It's an 18 min video were the guy explains how he came to his conclusion, but all you TLDR types, fast forward to 13:00.

 

I'll play.

hybrid MPG will be 23. real world.

city 18 real world.

20 combined.

 

Pushing it off a

Pushing it off a cliff.

 

Yep it's about the power rather than the fuel efficiency.

 

To be clear. I am not agreeing with the guy, just putting this out there along with all the other "I'm-at-work-and-should-be-working-but-instead-I'm-reading-posts-about-a-truck-I-have-no-intent-on-buying-for-a-few-years" crap.

 

I resemble this remark.

 

That's a dude lol.

I'm still going to wait for a dirt cheap ford maverick 10 years from now that needs a new battery.

 

a no bs 10spd, comfortable seats and heated steering wheel is all I’d have needed to be thrilled. Oh and remote start that works correctly. That’s it.

 

here is my take:
Non hybrid is 17/23/19 right?
Hybrid will be 23 city/ 26 highway/ 25 combined

hybrid takes care of most of the city driving that burns gas- getting up to speed. Hybrid assists on the highway with small hills, passing, etc which normally chew through economy.

I also wouldn’t be surprised to see 25 city, 28 highway, 26.5 combined

 

How do I Block a thread so I don't have to read any of it??

 

Unwatch thread. On the upper right hand corner. You can also manage the threads you "watch" in your settings.

Default settings has you watch every thread you post in. Also has you getting email notifications.

Both of those I changed.

 

what you want is a hide thread option so it doesnt show in the sub forum period. i've always wanted this option but havent seen a main stream forum software implement this.

watched thread is totally different beast.
