We mesure gas in litres not Canadian imperial gallons. I've never even heard of that being used to measure liquid Canada went metric decades ago.

Ok guys, here's the deal. I got a trailhunter just over 2 months ago, and have 2k miles on it right now. The window sticker claims 22-24 mpg....i am getting 15-16mpg tops. I am not happy about it at all, but cannot really do anything about it?? Any input would be appreciated.

@@EB-yp1wu I am quite aware that Canada went metric decades ago. I was in high school when the change over was made. And at the pumps in Canada before adopting the International System of Measure aka the metric system gas volume was dispensed and measured using the imperial unit. 1 imperial gallon = 4.55 L not the US gallon= 3.875 L, 83% the size. Just like Australia we are a Commonwealth nation and they too measured dispensed fuel in imperial gallons before adopting the litre. Regardless my point stands about MPG ratngs having to be technically different between Canada and the USA. But as a practical matter drivers don''t generally think about MPG or L/100 km they think about range between visits to the pump. How many times will I have to go this week and can I time it right with price changes. Hell in Ottawa prices drop at night. Where I Iive prices prices change, generally go up on Tuesday. Thanks again for doing the fuel range test and going through the math. I am curious to see how my new 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport with 6 foot bed compares. Especially in the winter and with bigger rubber and given that the Tacoma you tested is a TRD PRO with i force Max hybrid power. Lastly, if that is your Tacoma impressive sport truck. If I had the coin and they were not virtually impossible to get I would have been tempted. Saw a used one in Kingston Ontario with 14,000 km for sale at full new price. The justification by the dealership, no supply.

To your disappointment on MPG all I can say is look at what is in front of you. It explains your issue I believe. The huge tires 🛞 have significantly more rolling resistance than the narrower ones on the lower cost Tacoma models. Look at the Prius with its narrow wheels because they have lower rolling resistance. Tires 🛞 significantly affect at speed range and fuel economy. The bed has a utility bar that adds drag as does the roof rack, the rock rails and the running boards. Even the snorkel adds drag. Solution if you can’t live with the disappointment the fix is to sell and get a more fuel efficient trim level. or buy lottery tickets and pray for a big pay off. lol Likely not what you want to hear but drag is the enemy of MPG. The Trailhunter is for the driver who is an outdoor person and will use this trim level for that is it not? Vehicles like this are not desired from my understanding for their fuel economy but off road capability and toughness.

Tbh most people would be happy with the frontier. They are good trucks but they get a bad rep.

I originally was gonna go for a tacoma, but theyre ridiculously too small on the inside and ridiculously expensive for a 4 banger. The frontier is a good alternative option but I ended up going for a silverado trail boss with a duramax instead. That's the only time you wanna go for a turbo is when it's linked to a diesel engine. Great fuel economy for a full size truck and still cheaper than a TRD pro

Anyone who drives a frontier will always look like a loser driving in a frontier lol. It's literally a dollar tree looking Tacoma

@@lilbarney3514 wow dude, so judgemental over a midsize pick up.

@@Garlander you can’t be judgmental when talking about a frontier, it’s literally a Tacoma that looks like it was purchased off AliExpress

Not true my guy. Toyota recommends 87 on all their models. It's on their site. You still have time to delete your comment.

They recommend 87 octane but depend on compression ratio. High compression ratio engine I would put higher octane.

@ Nah Screw You With Your BS BMW 93 Ford 87 Toyota 89

@ I Put 89 On My Toyota And Never Put It On A Ford Or BMW
