The Tank MPG average calculation is not an accurate representation of fuel economy. It's a good guage tool but not accurate. It's always best to do the Miles driven/gallons of fuel = MPG formula.

I have a modded 400hp gs300 and honestly it works. I've gotten 17 to 20mpg city by using it in city I've tested it hy doing mileage calculations. I kept it hooked up Intent on using it for long trips using less engine power and it helps

I have a 2015 GS350 AWD. I would consistently get 30 mpg at 74-78 mph on long trips (600 miles +) on I-81. However, when I changed tires to Conti DWS06, I noticed an immediate decrease in mileage. On the same route now, I get about 26-27mpg. However, I have much greater confidence in rain and snow.
