#1 of 1 2007 Tacoma Fuel Capacity by tc99 Jul 06, 2009 (5:26 am)
I now know that this is a problem but nevertheless I am guilty, I have been topping off my truck (Toyota Tacoma reg cab, automatic trans) and managing to get 23+ gals in an empty tank. After doing this the first time I noticed that I could drive 500 miles (21.7 MPG) between fuel stops. Being that I drive a lot and hate to stop at the gas station I began to make it a regular practice. This became an issue with the fleet manager so I cut back to 21 gals and about 460 miles between stops. My questions are, How much gas can you get in the same vehicle? What is the vapor recovery capacity that this extra gas is going into?
