tacoma mpg

I am trying to find out the mpg for the 2006 Tacoma v 6 auto 2 wdrive. It is listed as n/a on their website


I have about 2000 miles on mine. I just got back from a trip and averaged 20.9 on the highway at a speed of 75. Around town I am getting 16-17. I have gotten over 21on the highway if I am running around 70. Mine is a two-wheel drive with the V6 auto, Jaminn aka Don Williams

1500 miles on mine (6sp though). I averaged over 15mpg only once (17mpg on 200 mi road trip). Mostly city, some highway. It's rated 16/21. The auto has basically the same rating, except one of the numbers (can't remember which one) is actually 1mpg higher for the auto.

My 4x4 6 speed Access Cab averages ~16.5 during my typical very short trip (3 miles) city driving, with the best tank being 18.8 on a long 75 MPH highway trip. All on 87 octane, with 9500 miles currently on the clock.

Surely, the 2WD should do better... At 1500 miles, you're still breaking it in.
