11 MPG Average Gas Mileage (2017 Crewmax SR5 5.7 V8 w/FFV)

I am all stock with the exception of a 300lb Ranchhand Brush guard/Bumper. I am a flatlander and have a lead foot. I drive maybe, 50% highway. My reader says, 12.3 MPG. I believe that it is accurate unfortunately...

 

I'm getting 13-14 city and 18-19 highway. No, it isn't great, but if you take look at other full size trucks, you're only talking a couple MPG's, and the other manufacturers have resorted to various trickery to squeeze out the little extra. Isn't worth it, in my opinion. I'll stick with a thirsty, reliable V8/6 speed as opposed to an 8 or 10 speed, a turbo, or an engine that shuts cylinders off on the highway.

 

Running 16.9 on stock crew max, mix of highway and in town stuff. That is the average for the last 3000 miles or so.

 

14k miles. Last 3 fill ups; 15.6, 15.8, 15.3 mpg on mixed hwy, city streets.

 

Speed test says im only 1 or 2 miles over speedometer so i didn’t recalibrate. My fuel average says 11.4 but my trip usually shows less when i fuel up

 

23-25 MPG

 

Oh I forgot to add, that’s with my wife’s Highlander.

 

My first gen per the ultra gauge says AVG. 15.3. I'm also lifted and on load range D 33 inch tires. If I cruise the interstate at 65 i can get it to read 16-18 depending on hills vs flat land. 70/75? 11 or 12.

 

Lol. Not much hope for better milage i guess. Maybe i need a highlander

 

Man how slow do some of y’all drive on the highway?

 

Hold the button on steering wheel and reset it. You’ll start to get an average after that

 

70mph is max here in Va. If I set my speedo to 65 I'm really doing 71 (bigger tires/need to re-gear) if I set it to 70, 76 is what I'm doing. I, personally dont like giving government money. So I watch myself.

 

what? which button on the steering wheel?

 

I was getting 18.5 here in Aurora, CO earlier this week. I’ve gotten on her a little, so she’s at 17.4 right now. On this tank, I’ve also already drive 300+ miles on the first half. Last tank, I got 523 miles on the tank. I’m running ethanol free gas.

Before I came up here, back in Mississippi, I was getting 13.5 - 15.5 depending on the tank and my foot.

 

How much is your ethanol free gas?

 

$2.88 I think, 87 grade was $2.65

 

Fuck me sideways!!!!!!! It's $3.46 for 87 here AND you have to go out of your way to get it!!!!

 

Hell, some stations refuse to let you pump ethanol free into your vehicle!!!!

 

Flatlanders do much better than those in hilly or mountainous terrain. I got 19-20 MPG in Virginia and Ohio but only 13.5-13.8 here in Northern WV. If your really wanting to impress try hauling a 9000# camper through the mountains.

6-8 MPG

 

Ya, the display button.. hold it in on the mpg screen.. it will reset

 

Gas mileage isn't everything. I had a 16 Tacoma; I live in a relatively flat area and was getting combined 23 MPG. Yes, that's great gas mileage for a truck. Now go drive a Gen 3 Tacoma, and you'll understand why I gave that up to get a combined 15 MPG in a Tundra.

 

I don't complain. It really doesn't bother me. I bought a big, V8 powered truck for a reason. My Xterra gets like 14 highway/10-11 city. It's also got an LSD rear with 4.63:1 gears and some extremely aggressive, oversized mud tires. Gas mileage has never been a concern. If it were I'd buy a weenie ass Prius.

 

I have a bone stock '18 crewmax, I use 91 octane from Costco and do mostly street driving - according to my calculations I get 14.5 MPG

 

My good friend had a Dodge Ram that got 10 city and 13 highway, I think it was a 2005. Makes me realize things aren't so bad in the Tundra. I know you weren't complaining, I was sort of replying to all. And savoring my departure from the Tacoma.

 

Totally stock I am running 17.3-17.5.
In fairness I am only on my 3rd tank of gas since I bought the truck and my wife has driven it 3 days to work (she drives like a 90 year old lady heading to church 2 hours before the doors are unlocked, but believes that you should let a vehicle sit and idle EVERY WHERE YOU GO).
I drive it like I stole it and am pleased so far!

 

In the summer I get around 15 around town, 16 - 16.5 on the highway. 3.5" lift and running 275/70/18s.

In the winter those numbers drop by about 1-1.5 mpgs.

 

thx. I did this on the way home. Went from 14.4 to 16.6 on my ride home

 

At 16500 miles I celebrate if I can get 12.5 (80% city driving). But I live on the edge of the hill country, and I drive like an Indy Racer. But, that's why I bought a V8 and my BeastMode is almost always "on". Also lifted/leveled.
I'm happy -

 

Cool. Drive normal ans ankut 3-4 days it will go up and down a lot slower.. once it’s gettig a good average

 

Well the fuel numbers are in with new 305/65/18 ko2s. 12.8 before, 10.8 now. No hills here in the so cal desert love my v8 but i wish i had the larger gas tank
