Be careful not to overfill the tank. Trying to force additional fuel into the tank could push fuel into the EVAP system. This may cause a check engine code and/or may require the replacement of some EVAP system components.

Impressive Highway Mileage
1 Attachment(s)
Interstate 95 between Trenton, NJ and Philadelphia, PA at about 65 MPH without using cruise control.

This truck, despite having a 4.6L V8 under the hood, gives impressive gas mileage compared to cars with 3.0L V6 from 10 years ago. I know it's not a very good comparison, but today's V8 is actually more efficient than an old V6! I get 15mpg from strict city driving, and my friend's 4Runner V6 from the mid-90's is doing 12-13mpg!

will routinely get over 20mpg on highway easily. city however only about 14
|
I get 15 city, and on my last highway trip @ 80 MPH, I got 18.6 MPG. Better than my 2001 Infiniti 4 liter V6. I got 14 city/16 highway. The GX does have a 6 speed transmission compared to the 4 speed in my old QX4. One thing I don't like, when going up hills with the cruise control on, it kicks the transmission down a few gears and really revs the engine. I have to kick off the cruise control on hills.

Damn you guys are lucky, so far my City driving gets me only about 11.4 MPG :(

My GX 2011 , avg about 16.5 MPG

I'm from LA- Gas: premium Cosco gas

I've logged a 400 mile turnpike trip with average speed from say 65-72 or so, and my mileage was just under 23. I measured it with the fill up method and got the same number.
Its all in the 6th speed. Not a lot of power up there, but certainly is effecient. Around town I think I am getting about 17 mpg or so. |
I'm consistently averaging 14 and change. Sigh.
|
I got 16.8 mpg towing a 4200 lbs trailer.
