Replying to: toddhm (Mar 26, 2008 9:47 am) I have had the same problem with the gas milage-----as far as the on board computer says. No matter what/how/or where I drive (city/freeway) I get 15.5 MPG or 15.6 MPG----I don't think so----. Originally I was getting about 17 MPG and above on the freeway so I think the computer is incorrect. I live in Oregon and we can't pump our own gas (can you believe that) so I never know exactly how full they fill the tank and so therefore can't check the gas milage manually. I think the next couple refills I will get out and watch to see how full the tank is and then figure my MPG by hand and get back to the forum.

#1908 of 1964 Luvin' my truck by tomnfl May 21, 2008 (7:33 pm)
I bought my '07 DC SR5 4.7L 4X4 one year ago and its been a dream. It now has 15,000 miles and no issues whatsoever to speak of. When I am towing a trailer, I sometimes forget its even back there. I wish the gas mileage was better but don't we all!?!?

Replying to: slooose (May 21, 2008 3:49 pm) 2007 5.7 CM Ltd 5000 miles Ive been manually tracking my gas and have averaged 14.5 us mpg with mostly city driving (65/35). On a couple of pure hiway trips, my mileage went up to 18 us mpg, averaging about 70mph. The revised EPA ratings for fuel economy are suprisingly accurate for I am consistently close to their results (which is WAY down from the original b.s. specs. when i bougth the truck in December).

Replying to: truckertucker (May 27, 2008 10:56 am) I have a 2008 5.7 Dblcab with tow mirrors and consistently get 15-17mpg in town and 19-20 mpg on highway at 65 mph. I do drive with a light foot in town and no speedy passing maneuvers with this big rig on the hiway. The lighter style may be the difference. I do have a shell over the bed as well. I run 87 octane only. 2500 miles so far no problems.
#1912 of 1964 4k miles/no issues by 1972ck Jul 09, 2008 (12:15 pm)
I have now owned my new '08 Tundra for 3 months now and have roughlt 4,200 miles on it. The truck is still running strong as the day I bought it. I've taking it on a few long distance trips and have towed around 8,000 lb.s with it. In trip to Loudon, NH on numbered routes the truck averaged 20.1 mpg. I couldn't believe it. For most commuting back and forth to work the truck has been averaging 18.4 mpg. I drive several side roads to get to the highway. The truck runs and drives great! The bed does bounce a tad over sharp bumps in the road but nothing severe. It's a pick-up truck after all. Replies to this message: mfhall (Jul 09, 2008 2:19 pm)

#1914 of 1964 2009 Toyota Tundra by indiborn92 Aug 03, 2008 (11:16 pm)
Hey guys I currently own a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500. It has about 55K miles and so far I've had no problems with the truck. My mileage is also somewhat decent. I am averaging 18 MPG all over. But I saw a Tundra a week ago and it was also very nice. It was a double-cab 5.7 l V8 2x4. I own a Dodge Ram quad-cab 5.7 l 2x4, and I was wondering what is new on the 2009 model Tundra's and what is the same from 2008. Also what would the value of my Dodge be. I have had no accidents in it and took pretty good care of it. Please reply back thank you.
