What's The Current Mileage on your 4th Gen?

[24tacoman]

85k km. No issues at all, I run 5w30 now for the summer.

2025 SR Crew 4x4 Purchased late Feb 2025 .... currently 2500 !! Engine is starting to break in and the mileage is improving !!!

My 24 off-road non-hybrid has 22k driving around the the western Denver metro and mountains of colorado. This truck is night and day compared to my 2016 4runner. Way less body roll and way more torque. I even tow a camper for family camping with it.

About 1800 KMs, picked her up about a month ago (after an 11 month wait lol)

Absolutely love the color as it appears in your pic. Beautiful.

95% of my driving is on the interstate. Minus waiting in line to get on the Naval Base; a real mileage killer, I am normally always moving. Also, the longer you drive consistently on the interstate, the better mileage you are going to get. Below is a photo of a one way trip to work this morning. 60-65 MPH on the interstate consistently. I usually do not fill up until I get under 10 miles remaining. At fill up, it usually gives me a 420 mile range. But, anyways, I love the truck and will drive it until the doors fall off. The only issue I had with it was 3 or 4 attempts at fixing the AC clutch chirp. While it was a pain taking it in so many times, I wanted repair attempts documented for warranty reasons. The last fix was the TSB for the updated clutch, 2 1/2 months later, still quiet.

I think this pic is a perfect example of why mileage discussions can be all over the map.

The image tells us quite a bit: 29.2 MPG over 29 miles in 38 minutes, averaging roughly 46 MPH. And, it's most likely an instantaneous average.

That’s a solid result. But it’s also one relatively short trip at a favorable average speed—not a long-term fuel economy number.

That’s the part often missing from these discussions. Someone posts 25–30 MPG, someone else says they can’t break 15, but we rarely know the speed, terrain, traffic, wind, or whether the number is a full-tank average or just a short trip.

For my Trailhunter, I tracked about 17,000 miles and consistently landed around 14–16 MPG, calculated manually at the pump. We’re over 20,000 miles now, and I doubt much has changed.

I can absolutely make the dash show around 20 MPG too. Keep speeds below roughly 49 MPH, stay on flat roads, avoid much stopping, and the numbers look great. But run 60+ MPH for 60 miles or more and I’m right back in the mid-teens.

That’s why context matters.

My Jetta was rated at 30 MPG highway and once gave me 31 MPG on a cross-country trip at around 80 MPH. My Q5 is rated 20 city / 29 highway / 23 combined, yet 25.5 mixed is common, and it returned 30.1 MPG on a 200-mile highway run last week.

The Trailhunter is the outlier. It’s the only vehicle I’ve owned where real-world mileage has differed this much from the EPA numbers.

Great truck. Aerodynamic masterpiece? Not so much.

Basically, it’s a lead brick (albeit rubber coated) with 34s—and the fuel economy reflects it.

24 TRD OR Hybrid. Just turned over 15k. Averaging 24mpg on highway consistently. Those are tank averages, not computer, although they aren't off by a lot. Great truck. Haven't had a single issue with it. Just put on some new shoes. Yokohama AT4. Love these tires so far. The tires that were on it weren't bad. I just didn't like them.

Just turned around 41k. I've never reset my MPG reading. Currently sitting at 18.9MPG. I get better mileage on long interstate trips where I'm cruising around 75-90mph. Mainly stick to I-95 where I'll regularly go 95, which definitely drops the reading.

2025 SR 4x4 double cab. It’s my everyday driver 95% expressway. 25k miles, 5k oil changes, 24.8 mpg. It’s been a great little truck for me. By the way, I drive 45 miles each way to work. I usually drive between 75 and 85 mph. I usually see displayed mileage showing 24.5 to 26 mpg. I do very little city driving. it’s an SR so it’s detuned if that means anything. I get the same results if I do the math myself at the pump. I know it would be lower with city driving, but I never get less than 22 miles per gallon.

I do feel like taking off the hideous chin air dam. Does it really do much? I live in Michigan, and winters without 4x4 and good tires can be tough. Even though I mostly drive expressway, that air dam seems more like a snowplow…

Are you folks with the higher MPGs driving Hybrids? Also, did your trucks come with the start/stop button and does that have any impact on the MPGs? (I don't think the Hybrid versions have the switch, for obvious reasons.)

I have no MPGs to post for my Limited Hybrid....she's being built on 9/30....so just trolling for now!

Hybrid or not doesn't seem to matter much on these trucks. Afterall, Toyota only advertises a couple mpg difference. Its all about the drive. Flat vs hills, start stop vs highway, and average speed. Official testing is still done at 55mph I believe. My truck for instance is a non hybrid. Avg mpg for my daily commute was 22mpg, now down to 18-20mpg with the addition of larger tires (but thats a whole different discussion).
