    I read through every one of those threads and still don't understand... what will MY mpg be? I don't care what YOUR truck does, or what your cousin's brother's niece's truck gets, I want to know EXACTLY what MY truck will get! You all have (maybe?) seen the one pic I shared of my truck, so it shouldn't be too hard for one of you geniuses to figure this out for me.

    There needs to be a whole thread put together just on this.
    It amazes me, in this day and age of information, how many people have no idea what octane is.

    Wife + kids + in-laws drove her 22 Sequoia TRD PRO from MA to FL and back. Average MPG according to hand calculation is... 21.7. The best one is over 22. A 3 short tons brick, slightly lifted (it's a TRD PRO), factory-installed emulation of AT tires, 3 adults, 2 kids, Yakima EXO + 10 cu.ft box on the hitch. Wow... The only thing I did is aired it up to about 43 PSI cold and peed on a wheel for better reliability (learned that trick from an experienced military truck driver).

    Why would she need a more eco-friendly vehicle? Which is, what, like +3 MPG, +$50k to MSRP and twenty weeks a year in the shop?
