I never go past 20 gallons of use, but i get about 270 on 20 gallons. Not too great of gas mileage, 13.5 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

Mileage (and two house payments) are why I sold my Tundra Doublecab. Only got over 13.8 ONCE! My old 03 Tundra Access Cab would sit in the high teens all day long. My 96 T has done any where from 12.5 (80 mph in drive bucking wind) to just over 16.2 on this last tank (310 miles, light not on yet). Just threw new plugs, wires and filter at it last week. Still needs exhaust and valve adjustment, as well as some seafoam, but I'm hoping for 18 average.

Without fail, my light comes on with 5 gallons still in the 24 gallon tank. Figuring a minimum of 15 mpg, I still have a range of about 75 miles when the light comes on.
Before adding the FWC and 285/75's, I was averaging 18.9 in town and 22.1 on the highway. The highest mpg I ever got was 23.8 I tracked it very consistently for 2 years, right up till Katrina hit and gas went over $3 a gallon.
FTR, with the FWC and 285's, I get 15.8 in town and 17.9 on the highway.

Yes 13.5 is corrected for tires, with 35s and a bit of a lift its not too bad.
