#6 of 351 Just to compare... by adc100 Feb 08, 2002 (5:17 pm)
I have the '94 4X4 with the 2.4 . 24mpg is as good as it gets and about 20 around town. I have a very light foot. I'm guessing that 22 is about tops on the highway.

I get about 20 to 23 m.p.g. (combined) with my 2.7 engine with the 5 speed manual tranny (truck is a 4x4). Speed does not seem to make any difference.
#8 of 351 2.7 4x4 mileage by beachbrat Mar 04, 2002 (4:18 pm)
Simon, I plan to buy a 2000 single cab Tacoma 4x4 2.7 4cl 5speed and I hear from here that 22-24 is average. Replies to this message: jazzbeau (Dec 07, 2005 10:05 pm)
#9 of 351 Getting only 19 MPG by tisteve Mar 20, 2002 (8:38 am)
I think I might have a bad O2 sensor. I am consistently only getting around 19.2 per gallon. I have the 2.7 with 5sp 4x4 w/TRD. I do drive with a bit of a heavy foot, but I shift early if I'm not trying to accelerate.   Also, on warm mornings I get a funny exhaust-like smell in the cab for a few minutes until she warms up.   If most folks are getting in the low 20's, somethings not quite right.

Hmm.....yeah. I nearly got 19mpg on my last trip to Dallas, 85mph the whole way, with a V6 4x4, so something is wrong in your truck. Replies to this message: hawaiianbob (May 07, 2005 7:50 pm)
#11 of 351 Great mileage by rfross Mar 20, 2002 (1:54 pm)
I had a 1996 Tacoma basic standard cab 4X4. It had air, an AM/FM radio and the all weather guard package, the 2.7 and 5 spd manual. That's it.   With the standard 3.42 axle ratio and the standard 235/75X15 tires I managed to get a best of 26.x MPG on the highway driving conservatively.   This truck was THE BEST truck I ever owned. When I sold it at 50,000 miles there were ZERO squeaks or rattles. I never should have sold it but needed something that would tow and carry 3 - 5 passengers. Ended up with a new '99 Sierra 4X4 that turned out to be junk and I sold it after about a year of ownership.....   Wish I had that Toyota back!

Get yourself another Taco then. I wish I could see some of your gas milage....but I don't drive on highway conservatively. I could get 20+ if I stuck to 70-75, but I can't do it.

What kind of truck do you own now? If you had an extended cab Sierra, I'm sure a Double Cab 4x4 Tacoma will not have any less room in the back seat for 3-5 passengers, and you win both ways because you own your Toyota again.
#15 of 351 Is your truck living up to the numbers? by pf_flyer HOST Jan 05, 2005 (8:18 am)
Are you getting the mileage you expected fromt he EPA estimates on the sticker? How's your Tacoma doing out in the real world?   PF Flyer Host Pickups & News & Views Message Boards Replies to this message: vmiman (Jan 10, 2005 1:40 pm) yardguy (Jan 22, 2005 4:02 am) xwesx (Jan 23, 2005 9:07 am) and 2 more... dew60 (Oct 04, 2005 4:01 pm) wooddorker (Oct 05, 2005 11:14 am) jeff31 (Oct 10, 2005 9:14 pm)
