Gas Mileage?

Im in the 14-16 club.

Same, but typically 14. Worse in the mtns. Stock Aisin rebuilt by Jim Chenowith, FJ40Jim

Thanks for the reality check. I'm less concerned about cost of the gas than the back country range. I'm adding fuel capacity, but still 10 MPG limits off grid ambition.

It's always a good idea to bring along a few fuel cans......

What is mileage? The first 40 I owned got 10 on the road and off unless it was low range. The second 40,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,10 mpg. The third is still sitting in the garage slowwwwwwwwwly being built and get the best mileage of them all. Has not burned an ounce of fuel since I bought it.

Range was the main motivator for having a diesel swapped into mine
