How many miles do you have on your FJC

monniepoo · 09-20-07, 04:54 PM

How many miles ya got on your FJC. Have you noticed that the gas mileage has improved with mileage? I currently have 18,567 miles on mine and it seems to run great!

Stinkyfinger · 09-20-07, 05:32 PM

I just hit 26,000 miles and it runs and drives better then the day I bought it.
That's why I keep buying Toyotas
The gas milage has improved a little.

LandCruiserSteve · 09-20-07, 06:16 PM

Only 11,800. And, almost half of that was getting to and from Ouray, CO for the FJ Summit.

Your user name still cracks me up!!

Lovey · 09-20-07, 08:26 PM

14,800. Manual.

Just started putting regular gas in it for first time since new. Little bit of MPG loss
as expected but runs just fine.

LandCruisers4Life · 09-21-07, 09:21 AM

13 months, and just took it for the 15,000 mile oil change.

Corey · 09-21-07, 10:02 AM

Bought July 24th 2006, automatic.
9700 miles or so, short 15 mile commute each way to work keeps the miles down.

At one time I was getting close to 21 MPG before the ARB bumper, winch, and lift.
And now with my 2ns set of mud tires sized at 285x70x17, I get about 17 to 19.50 combined city/freeway.

Feels like there is more power, and putting on the 285s did not change the speedo or horsepower at all.

I have tracked my MPH with the Pioneer AVIC-D3 nav unit against the Toyota speedometer, and they are dead on with each other.

Aggie · 09-21-07, 10:22 AM

I am sitting at 24,000 Miles on the clock. I don't even try to calculate MPG anymore, I just wince at the pump. Bumper, winch, 34" super swamp LTB's = BAD MPG.

65-fj45 · 09-21-07, 10:51 AM

I've had mine for 15 months and have 37,000 miles on it. My gas milage got better after I added a CAI and Cat back.

tddfj · 09-21-07, 11:51 AM

got 4800 miles, had for less than 5 months, get about 19.8 miles per gallon to and from work, got 15.8 towing a boat for 3 hours from lake

abophx · 09-21-07, 12:08 PM

17 months 30K+ miles, mt6. The best I ever got was just under 21 mpg between Gila Bend and Plaster City, the straightest flattest most boring stretch of road known to mankind.

BMThiker · 09-21-07, 03:39 PM

13.5 months, 30,500 miles, avg 14-15mpg, lots of weight, still happy as a clam!

ksheffield · 09-21-07, 06:48 PM

Nosed over 24,000 this week, bought it 8.31.06, took it on a trail run for its birthday and have noticed it getting about 21 mpg, which is much better than a year ago.

It's been a sick love affair the past year.

meathead · 09-21-07, 08:34 PM

22k miles. I quit paying attention to MPG.

ak hwy · 09-21-07, 08:36 PM

6293 miles (only 344,560 fewer than my FJ60). 23.49mpg on 91 octane.

LandCruisers4Life · 09-21-07, 10:39 PM

I never checked to see what kind of mileage I get. When I get asked how it does on gas, I just tell them "I didn't buy it for gas mileage, and I have no idea".

Shadow-Warrior · 09-22-07, 08:34 AM

I bought mine in Feb 06, I now just hit 21,000 miles. I was getting 22mpg Hwy. I just installed a New Donahoe 3.5 along with Camburg UCA's. I also installed Dick Cepek Mud Country's on M/T Classic Locks. I'm now getting about 16 Hwy and my Scan Gauge says 12 mpg city. A big drop in MPG:(

monniepoo · 09-24-07, 11:06 PM

Im sure that you look cool though

kiskat23 · 09-25-07, 08:20 PM
