I posted on this thread about 1000 km ago, im now at 1500 km and my average has gone down to about 13L/100km. It seems to be slowly getting better. Its also still -10C where i am so as things warm up im expecting even better.

Air dam removed, 275/60r20 AT tires, running 93 octane, averaging 19 mpg. Work from home, so 90% putting around town and mostly stop and go.

That is unbelievably good milage my friend! Are those Imperial or Metric figures? 31 MPG in US figures (or as SouthCoast stated, “Freedom Units”) is better then anything iv seen yet!

It is imperial lol. I live in CALIFORNIA and trust me the first 15 miles on highway was traffic bumper to bumper but after that 15 miles it was smooth sailing at around 72-75 mph. I monitor the MPG during the trip yes it moved from 21 and creeping to 31 by the time I made to my destination of 47 miles.

I am not sure what is the Freedom unit haha. But shit me not I was surprised when I saw my TH got to 31.1 mpg on my way to Huntington Beach from LA. 47 miles distance. Again my TH is all original accept accessories and that can easily added on 300 lbs.

lol. You just answer your own question there. That is a lots of weight first of all and with all those mechanical modifications that Toyota did not use during the process of testing their vehicle from the first place .

Especially anytime you are messing around with mechanical modifications even just minor you will change the entire aerodynamic of the car. Big tires, lifts and so on are major modifications. Not to mention how the electronics system and so will handle it in the long run. I talked to a lots of people who did major modifications and their responses are always the same. Issues are and will began to show up soon or later.
