Real world fuel mileage

[DudeBro]

Check out https://www.fuelly.com/car for real world fuel economy. It's crowd sourced data from thousands of fill ups. I've personally logged nearly 66k miles on there in my GMC Sierra (that I've now driving 114k miles). My average mpg over the logged miles is 17.4.

2017 F250 CC Diesel, 2 inch level and 35s. Just did a 3600 mile trip got 16.5 as average with three guys and fear for a week long base camp hunt.

2015 F150 3.5 eco

Crew cab/short bed
20” wheels

17.4 average over 30k mi

Cross country highway trips averaging 80 mph get around 18.5 mpg

pulling a 3000 lb boat brings me to about 12-13 mpg

2017 Tacoma V6 TRD
Manual trans
2.5” Old Man Emu lift
33” BFG’s
Camper shell
18 mpg if it’s flat and I don’t go over 65

2011 Nissan Xterra Pro4
33" tires
Straight Hwy = ~17.5mpg (best was 19mpg)
Straight City = ~14mpg
Mixed = ~15.5mpg

Before I upgraded to 33"s and ran the stock 265s, I could get 20 sometimes on the highway. Upgrade cost me ~1mpg.

2013 Lexus GX460, 4.6 liter V8, 4WD - 20mpg highway, 14-15 in town, overall average around 17 on regular unleaded

2003 Toyota Land Cruiser, 4.7 liter V* 4WD, 12mpg

 

[Carrydaily]

02 dodge 2500 small lift with 35s

[spc7669]

1999 Toyota Land Cruiser
4.7 V8
33’ BFGs
13.5-14.5 if I’m nice on the pedal. 11-12 if I’m not.

 

[Extrapale]

2018 Ram Power Wagon
“stock” (factory lift, 33” tires, winch, lockers, and 4:10’s)
6.4L

Average 11.5 MPG for all driving

I do use all the “stuff” pretty regularly and would guess a 50/50 use of hi way vs off road use. I love the truck comfortable and super capable, but what a gas pig.

2017 version here. Same type numbers. 285-75-17

Average 11-12 combined driving.

As good as 17-18 on freeway.

Towing a cargo trailer on hunting trips 9-10.5.

2016 Expedition Limited. 3.4L Ecoboost, twin turbo (only one motor that year).

With Pedal Commander set to economy, about 20 mpg in 70:30 city/highway miles.

Pedal Commander set to "City 3", about 19.

Max is over 40.2 mpg at 49 mph with ethanol free fuel.

Lets do a data base thread on what kind of fuel mileage you are getting in your truck.

Post your trucks year, motor and any mods with the fuel mileage...minimum commentary.

My 2012 Tundra with the 5.7L, Icon suspension that lifts it about 2" and 33" Toyo's is getting 13.6 all around [mostly city] and gets 15 on the highway averaging 75 mph.

Gear ratio and tire size are as important as engine size and transmission type when it comes to fuel mileage. Same as stop and go vs highway driving. Lots of factors really. Anyway....

First gen 4runner, 3.4l v6, open cone style k&n air filter, exhaust work, manual 5speed, dual tcases, 35 12.5 15s, 4.30:1 axle gears and selectable rear locker, (used to have spooled rear). Mostly back roads and highways out here but get er into town on occasion. I tend to rip it around and fuel economy goes out the window, something about a manual trans that makes a guy wanna stretch the legs out on ‘er, ya know what I’m sayin?
It was getting around 15mpg average last time I checked it. But the Speedo isn’t calibrated for the 35s so total miles per tank of fuel is probably more so mpgs are probably higher.

It picked up an mpg when I did wheel bearings and brakes a couple years ago.

2015 Ram Crew Cab 2500, 6.7L cummins. Goodyear Wrangler all terrains. Just did a 2000 mile round trip loaded with gear for 10 days and averaged 19mph 75-80mph most of the way. Truck is fully deleted and running +150hp tune.

'01 Ford Excursion with 6.8L V10 with 180,000 miles. Its got some basic exhaust mods and a tuner to help with transmission management for mountain driving. 2" lift and 285 BFG KO2's. 10 mpg no matter how its loaded which sucks but its a weekender/hunting rig only. It's not a commuter.

2017 Tacoma. Cclb with toppers and homemade drawers In the bed. Get about 17/18 around town. 20/21 on the highway
