yeah they do get bad mileage on the V6 automatics
check out www.fueleconomy.gov to check it out.
last time I looked a V6 auto 4runner got the same mileage as a fullsize 4x4 truck.
the site isn't always correct but gives you an idea what to expect.
i got a 92 4runner with a 22RE 4 banger and a 5 speed and I got 24.4 MPG the last time I filled up.I noted my mileage at fill up, then when I filled up again I noted it again and did the math on it and was shocked that i get 24.4, because their website says 20 i think. i do drive with mileage on my mind and keep my revs as low as possible, and keep to the posted limits without pushing the truck to speed up without it coasting into a speed up though.I also have removed my side steps, bumpers, roof rack, etc... to shed as much weight as possible and because my bumpers were rusty anyways ![]()
Im over in canada so I actually get 10.6KMS per liter which is about $1.00 for every 10 kilometers.Approx.
I did just put new plugs, wires, oil, etc about 3 weeks ago too.
