My stock TRD has 40K on it and I travel/live in the Baltimore Washington Metro area.
I have a TRD CAI and Syn Lube in engine and Rear.
My TRD is 5 Speed Auto.
I purchased it 12/07, so there is obviously quite a bit of Interstate at 60-65MPH driving going on here.
I feel that that is acceptable for a nearly 5K pound vehicle.
It is considerably better than the 15-16MPG I am getting on my "new" '96 FZJ 80 series and alot better than my "old" '90 FJ 62 which gets 13 -15MPG.
I mix it up to keep the miles down on the TRD; and because I love all these trucks!!.........gm
