I have an 05 4x4 DC with 65,000 miles on it. I buoght it new. My average MPG is 18.8 everyday driving. Interstate only is 23.5. I have checked it every 3-6K miles at the pump, (Not on the computer in the truck) the worst mileage ever was 7.5 mpg (while pulling my boat). Best ever was 25.7 interstate only abount 320+ miles. This truck is great for everyday mileage. If you pull or haul anything other than a weedeater, be prepared to pay dearley for fuel. I am very dissapointed in fuel economy when towing. Other than towing, MPG is great compared to full size pickups!!!

| Pushing 100k, in town average 18.5, highway 21 (80 MPH). The best I've done was following a friend towing a big trailer (averaging about 50 MPH) 28 MPG | |

Replying to: andersonbl (May 03, 2005 4:49 pm) I drive it a lot on the hwy and was hoping for ~ 17-18 mpg....but it's not happening. I've kept it maintained as always 3000 mile oil changes, and I burn premium gas, I'm not towing anything , so I believe 14-15 mpg is all I can hope for these days. I'm happy w/ everything else.

Replying to: driver56 (Jul 08, 2007 6:52 pm) Make sure you do have it in 5th gear. The gear selector needs to be moved to the right. D for Drive. Otherwise, you are running in 4th gear. Knew somebody else who did this and was also noting the bad gas mileage.

Can anyone who owns a 2006 or 2007 Tacoma Double Cab 4X2 w/ Long Bed tell me what you are averaging gas milage wise on the highway? I am thinking about buying a Tacoma Double Cab as my primary vehicle but, I commute 50 miles one way to work and was wondering if it is even worth it. I love the truck though.
