My current MPG in my 25’ TrailHunter

What did you drive before, and what kind of gas mileage did you get?

21 4Runner. Mpgs were a bit better.

How can best MPG be 8.2 and average be 16.2?

Does anyone know when a larger gas tank option will be available? Annoying that they decided to put a smaller tank in the new gen.

I know there are dozens of posts about mpg and fuel tank size. This post is less of a complaint and just my experience. Downloaded Fuely app to record my “normal” daily driving just to work and back. I’m currently averaging 8.2 mpg. That’s mixed highway and city. That’s wild. I’m using 93 premium fuel. I love my truck. Fuel efficiency is probably the last of my cares but it’s definitely inconvenient having to fill up every 1.5 days. Again, not a complaint, just my experience.

I also drive a Trailhunter, 2024.
It is possible, with care and gliding (it charges the battery) when you see a red light ahead and on all downhills, to get 17/18 on the city.
HWY I try to keep it between 2000 to 2500 rpms, it is the sweet spot of the transmission and, especially if you avoid sudden acceleration, it is possible to get 16 /17 mpg with 65 to 85 speeds.
If you plan heavy duty offroad stuff you must buy some form of auxiliary tank, at least 5 gal, to make sure you will get out the other end.
It is a truck unlike like any other of its size, drives wonderfully but the consumption/ tank size, was definitely a screw up by Toyota

I’ll try that. 2000 to 2500. I’ll see what happens and post an update. The vehicle’s MPG tracker is definitely different from the Fuelly app. I’m not sure which is more accurate.

Fuelly will likely be best since you tell it the exact amount of fuel purchased. Then the only real question is odometer accuracy, which is easily checked. .
