    Here is mine: (with metrication) LOL.

    * 16-March 2018: Pick-up my 2018 TT CM 1794 (Assualt Fuel Rim on Toyo Tires OP 275/55/R20) with Full tank gas (Initial Distance Km is 965km or 599.623 miles)
    * 28-March 2018: Fuel empty message at 764km or 475 miles. Put 119 Litters or 31 gallons for the refill with a 25 Litters or 6.6 gallons left in my tank (i guess)

    Summary:

    * 12 Days before my 1st gas refill
    * Distance Km is 910 km or 565 miles after refill
    * Average Millage is 12.1 L/100 km or 19.43 mpg (based on the computer dashboard) (this is weird)
    * My City driving speed is 50 - 60 kph or 31 -37mph 2WD every day (40 mins) (50km or 31 miles) (residential and some highway)
    * My Highway driving speed 80 - 100 kph or 50 - 62mph 2WD every day (20 mins) (30km or 18 miles)
    * TOO EARLY TO CELEBRATE. LOL

    BTW:
    * My 2013 TT Platinum CM is already stable at 15.4 / 100 KM or 15.27367 mpg Fuel Economy after 5 years or 1825 days. LOL tango_face_smile_1c1eaed44acaaba52ee5b4c4fcf0b9503d537591.png

    Next question: US or Imperial gallons? That looks really high for US gallons.

    Used the US Miles per gallon.

    Here

    I'm getting more if I use Imperial, so I'll stick with the US Miles per gallon. :)

    Never mind. After re reading your first post I'm getting similar (slightly higher) in my 2018, but I have the 18" wheels.

    Again this is my 1st refill. I haven't lifted my truck as well. So things may change.

    One of the biggest things that stands out to me in your post is your mph. When I stay in the 50-55mph range I get over 20mpg but my highway miles are typically closer to 80mph which has netted me 14.1mpg over the last two tanks.

    I'm looking forward to doing the 80 mph very soon on a 1300 mile trip (back n fort)

    For the meantime, I will take advantage of getting a 20 mpg on my normal 80 km daily driving routine. :)

    I guessing you still believe the Phillips screw is better than the Robertson?

    I was at 19.5 when I pulled into parking lot this morning. Probably averaged about 60 on a 30 mile not a lot of stop and go but not my normal 70 mph. 3 things absolutely kill mileage. High speeds, traffic, and acceleration.
