What's your Miles Per Gallon?

[SC88Pathy]

I'll start it out. I'v got an 88 V6 and currently I'm averaging 16-17 MPG. Highest MPG yet is 18, and lowest was 15 last fill up. That 15 was probably because it was raining and I love to floor it in the rain. Spin those tires! -bounce- Of course I drive with a lead foot regardless of the weather. sly

14ish city and 18-19 on the highway. 95xe V6 30" tires

[SC88Pathy]

Oh yeah I should add that my driving is mostly freeway and windy mountain roads.

[Harbinger]

My 87 has been averaging about 13.7, and that was mostly distance driving to 4x4 areas. I haven't ran the codes yet but I'm pretty sure I need a new O2 sensor and a few other little goodies. But with 270,000 on the clock, I'm not sure if I can complain :-)

 

With my VW being down I've been driving the Pathy around town, and now with little more than 1/4 tank left I have about 185 miles on the tank. Not looking to pretty!

[94extreme]

i don't know exactly but finally get more then 200mi from the tank.. maybe close to 250... last summer could barely get to 200

[Pezzy]

Last summer I figure it out at about 16 MPG on my 99.5

Which was what they averaged for my truck.... thats City & highway driving everyday. I was getting close to 500 km a tank (I think, this is going by memory - something I'm not good at)

 

Over the winter that went down hill, about 400 km per tank, and just as it was warming up & getting better I went and modded the hell out of it, and I'm stuck at 400 km a tank again.

17 with the '02's stock tires- 22 on the highway

 

14-15 with the Bridgestone Revos- 20 on the highway

[RowOSU]

16-17. Everytime. Doesnt matter city, highway, 4x4, stuff on the roof, always 16-17. Rather depressing I can't do anything to change it.

[Trainman]

As my truck is used in my business, I have to keep pretty good records for the tax man (and to make sure I charge my clients enough!). So here are my averages from Dec 2004 when I bough the truck (they have been converted to US gallons, Canadian gallons are bigger, as are all things Canadian ):

 

Bush: 14-16 (AUTO and 4wd mix)

Town: 16-19 (2wd)

Highway: 19-23 (2wd and AUTO mix)

 

I have noted that keeping it in 2wd rather than AUTO helps by about 10% on the highway. The lowest I have got is 12 MPG, this in the woods at -36 Celsius, it idled a lot that day! Best is 25, highway at 90-100 km/hr 2wd.

 

Oh, the Sienna gets mid 30's on the highway, so we use it a lot for longer travels.

'91 SE V6, MT, 31x10.5x15. I consistently get 18-20 with mixed driving. Very little offroad. This is my daily driver. I just rolled 145K on the clock. When I tow my boat (20' fiber. I/O bowrider) I see about 15. Oh and 88 I love to rrrrrroast the tires in the rain as well.

 

Hey somebody had to use the break dancin' stick boy. And yes he/she dances better two dimensionally than I do three dimensionally.

Around 16, but my drive to work and school is less than 3 miles so a tank lasts awile. When i get those 33's though its prolly gonna be about 12....

[Repack]

15 city, 18 highway if I am careful.

[Precise1]

15 city, 18 on the highway if I keep my foot out of it... Thats a 95xe with JGC lift, 31" tires and cat back magnaflow exhaust with 112K miles. I yearn for the 20 mpg days of my old truck, but I know thats more mental then not...

[88pathoffroad]

10-12 tops, everywhere. More like 4-6 at the sand dunes and while offroading.

[4wheeler]

WEll my lead foot doesnt help any but i think i get around 13 with 235 75 15 i havent checke in a while though. i have an 87 V6

[DJ Dank]

Yeah, I get 14 on the freeway last time I checked. But I do a lot of city driving...can't imagine how much worst it is...

[GrimGreg]

My 88 has been getting around 17 and my 93 usually gets around 19.

[Slick]

'92 4 door XE. doing good right now.. avg 16-18 highway and 13-15 town. all that shifting around town sux! That's on 29" tires. (255/70/15) -bounce-

I used to get 8-10 before I did the headers n stuff!

[jonathanjdfraser]

when i got it, bout 8... , for the first week, had 10 psi of air in the tires.. lol, now, bout 16-17, 93se auto

[big_johnson]

18-19 mixed driving on my 97 SE with 30x10.5's, manual hubs, intake and exhaust. Somehow it stays around 18, no lower than 17, no matter if I take it easy on the skinny pedal or get heavy with the right foot.

[JeepRescueService14]

yea.. 33s throw youre mileage into the toilet.. i didnt know i could get any worse.. then i got 35s hahaha

[Mr. Pickles]

31's and about 15 around town, 19 or so on the highway. Not too shabby really, especially considering some of the other SUV pigs out the. FU-H2.

[Harbinger]

THe thing that irks me is my dads 97 2 door Tahoe gets about 17-22 depending on where hes driving. He has some light mods like a jacobs ignition, k&n filter and a larger exhaust. The engine is a Vortech 5.7 350

 

Meanwhile My poor sixbanger is giving me a consistent 13.7.

 

Motor swap time!

[jj big shoe]

Let's see what mileage he's getting in 2015 when it's your Pathy's age, if it even makes it to 18.

[kmgar99]

I drive 40 miles to work and 40 miles back....all freeway, in the hills and mountains of SoCal and I get 14.9 - 15.4 every tank. I'm a lead foot who hasn't figured out that my 97 isn't going to hold 90 on a 15% up grade for 2 miles....But I try anyway....leaving the tach at 5,000 for almost 1/2 the drive.....This truck has been great! Oh BTW thats with a 2" AC lift and 31" BFG AT's and No rear bumper....less wind resistance!
