Most of my running (40K in 16 months) is in the Baltimore Washington Metro Area, which is one of the top 5 traffic areas in our great country.
My TRDSE has syn lubes throughout, a TRDCAI, Stock tires and suspension and it is an automatic.
I try not to idle it much and I usually run the speed limit.
The fuel econony has improved since new along with the tenor of the exhaust note.
I can't stay out of it, and with $4.00 Regular, it is the most economical of my daily drivers. The fun quotient is also pretty high.
Gotta run! My Grandson Josh and I have some Saturday errands to run; later.............gm
