94 pickup with a 22RE auto tranny, 235 tires. newer engine rebuild with 2.25 exhaust. During the summer I get 18-20 around town but during last fill up I think I was down around 13-15 also all around town with almost no highway driving. I think part of this is due to warming the truck up in the morning and letting it sit at idle 5 days a week.
1994 Toyota Pickup 22RE, EB 268 cam , 2.25 LCE exhaust.
1988 Toyota 4Runner, mostly stock but hopefully not for long

My 15-16mpg does not include any interstate driving, so maybe it would do a bit better at a more constant speed. All my driving is rural two lane and city stop and go. Have to keep the poor thing mostly floored to maintain speed on these hilly curvy roads.
-1989 4x4 22re(pretty good in the mud)
- custom steel flat bed-oneside of exhaust system, and air box intake off cobra.(doesnt quite have the v8 rumble)AFM off '82 Supra.

It just suprises me a bit how low some of these mpg are. I usually get around 20mpg on my cobra, and thats with a v8 and 3:73 rear gears. So, I always expect better then the 15-16 that I get on my truck.

What's your mixture, 2-3 oz. per 10 gallons? Do you run it every tank of gas? Also, are you using the pure 100% stuff or the diluted stuff? Inquiring minds want to know.
