    Real world mileage? Shit, that's what.

    '06 Tundra with 32s, 15 city. Granted that's driving up either Little Cottonwood Canyon or Parleys Canyon 3-5 times a week. Can get 18ish highway if I keep it reasonable. I just have the 4.7 V8 not the newer 5.7. Shit, gas kills me. Spend roughly $3600 a year driving my truck but the vehicle makes sense for my life.

    I drive past my neighbor's cherry '95 Cruiser every day. I want it, bad, but then I see threads like this and my rational mind takes over. I just can't swing 11-14 mpg.

    I'm sure I could get him to sell, too. Dammit.
    Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

    2008 f250 w/ 5.4L gas engine. I get like 11 mpg. If I had to pay for fuel I would be screwed. I have driven 33k miles since last August.

    formerly an ambassador for a few others, but the ski industry is... interesting.
    Fukt: a very small amount of snow.

    2006 Tacoma SR5 four door.
    Been getting 15 mpg.
    Went on a road trip last weekend that burned almost a full tank of fuel and got 18-19 mpg. Happened to have also taken off the cap on the back for this trip.

    2001 Nissan Pathfinder - 15 city, 17 highway, 11-14 towing small trailer.

    1997 Toyota T100 - 13-14 city, 17 highway. It ought to be better, although the truck does have 340k miles on it.

    2005 Pontiac Vibe AWD - 22 city, 28 highway. Increasingly, this is our ski car and road trip car. Not fashionable or fast, but enough room for what we're doing and it's great in snow.

    '11 2.5l Jetta wagon 5 speed manual averages about 28 mpgs with summer tires and 26 with steelies/snow tires/ski rack. Kinda disappointing to be honest, still might trade it for a TDI one day.

    The lady's '06 A4 2.0T 6 speed manual is a champ at 28 mpg and is a fucking blast to drive.

    Just got 23 on my first tank in the FJ.

    Given that it has yet to see a speed over 60 and I dont live in a town Im almost all highway.

    Was averaging 21 with the same commute in my Nissan, so Im happy.

    Wifes Forester gets 23 as well. Fucking hate that piece of shit.
