That may be what 'affects mathematically' your mileage.

And you put 285/? on it?

So what size tires did the truck come with stock?

What was the tire size before? If you aren't compensating for tire size difference, I would be willing to bet your mileage didn't change. https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc

I'm not too knowledgeable on installation, but how would that mount?

I get 20mpg with a long bed V6 four door (2007) and I don't lead foot it. Automatic on 16's.

I had someone pull in front of me a few weeks ago and damaged my flawless front bumper. Insurance paid for it and I'm considering getting a blacked out steel bumper but I love the look of the painted bumper. Plus if I replace the front with Black I'd have to do the back to match. Chrome looks...

I hate how tight those corners are in a drive thru setting. I have the double cab long bed. I feel your pain.

The Sony XAVAX100 is an excellent radio that maintains the knob for volume and does Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto. Excellent value.

I would venture to say very few people hit that $11,000 mark... I would also say that Canadians spend that $11,000 in additional costs to live, eat, tax, etc. Free isn't Free in Canada.

My 2007 V6 got 18.6 on its first full tank. Always fill up the same way, don't top off. Write down your miles driven and gallons used. Pretty easy to do. I use the Calendar app on my iPhone to track fuel costs and in the notes section I document that info for safekeeping. Hope that helps.

Go aftermarket. You'll get more options and flexibility.

I recently got a 2007 V6 and on a highway drive at 75mph cruise I got 26mpg....a 4 cyl getting 10mpg city sounds bizarre.
