Replying to: gregcarper (Aug 15, 2009 7:21 am) Just did the Imperial MPG conversions for the US MPG's using the following data on the D4D installed in UK Toyota Landcruiser weighing 4806 pounds. Urban (City) 24.6 Imperial MPG or 20.5 US MPG Extra Urban (Highway) 37.7 Imperial MPG or 31.4 US MPG Combined (Combined) 41.4 Imperial MPG or 26.1 US MPG ( or 9 MPG better than the US FJ using Super Unleaded Gas) 0-62 MPH was 11.2 Sec Top Speed was 109 MPH Why don't we have these in the USA? 597 Miles per 19 gallon tank of diesel verses 291 with Super Unleaded (hwy)... WTH Toyota??? Replies to this message: junkiecol (Sep 25, 2009 7:32 pm)

Replying to: gregcarper (Aug 16, 2009 9:49 am) Thinking and dreaming about the FJ for me (cause my wife and daughter are trying to take over both of my cars - a Murano and Corolla). Not concerned much about fuel consumption while having a Corolla as a 2nd car, - when I need, - it shows me 39 mpg at hwy speed 75-90 miles/hr. But my big concern is a small fuel tank of FJ, especially with my habit of night driving from camping sites on remote rural roads. My Corolla has a 13.2 gallon tank, Murano - 21.7 gallon fuel tank. I always happy to see that both of my cars normally achieve 250 miles on a half tank, - so usually I have enough gas left for a return trip from a remote site.
