20+MPG with the 5.7L Tundra

[@ooatamanov]

Jusr keep below 2000 engine rpm while driving That's what you are trying to say for 15 min.

[@mickeytaylor7111]

I got 22.8 mpg on my 2016 tundra 5.7 limited. culpeper va. to outer banks Nc. 250 miles and back 489. Hwy. just stay in right lane. Easy on throttle. You get there same time dad everyone else does because there is always traffic slowing down sledding up. Thanks enjoyed.

[@trooth73]

Yep, actually been doing this for awhile now in my 2021 Tundra, I live in Hawaii and always drive barefoot! Average 17-21 MPG

[@jayps421]

Man I'm going to try this! The most I ever got on my 19 Tundra on a tank mainly freeway driving was 16.5. And now I struggle to get 14.5 now. Thank you! I'll update my comment with my results.

Same I got my 06 Tundra rwd still get almost 18 but I love to gun it lmao

[@kevinbraun247]

I just purchased a 2021 Tundra 5.7 L and I have been doing this on both highway and city but averaging only 13.6 MPG. Is the bad MPG compared to others here due to the low profile tires the previous owner has on this Xp Series Tundra? Also, do K and N filters really help? Thanks for your help guys!

[@Mr_Navil_Campo]

How are you guys getting those MPG??? I get 11 to 16 mpg in a good day in the city and maybe 16 to 17 mpg in the highway and I don’t drive like I stole it

[@303MoTo]

I typically get 12-13 when I'm running errands close to home, lots of short trips 2-3 miles. When I highway drive I'm usually around 16-18. Best I ever got was a trip to Omaha and back, 20.5 mpg. But that only happened once

[@AndreiDoroftei]

i will attempt at making a how to video

[@Ricksproperties]

Same here. This guy is NOT adding in any normal travel, up or down hill. I drive like a great grandpa. Watching the “blue guide,” easy on the throttle. 20mpg ONLY going straight flat road with tire pressure at 50 psi.

[@swingdaddy2126]

Stock exhaust, drop in K&N air filter with TRD air flow accelerator. Denso iridium spark plugs. This easy combo of parts gets me 22 MPG. Another trick is when at 70-80 mph lock tranny in 5th gear and feather the throttle. I have seen even better MPG doing this. I guess I am leaving this comment to back up what this guy is saying.

[@stephencoffin4826]

I can get 19-20 mpg on a 3 hour trip with mostly 60-65 mph roads with hills too. It’s very easy you just can’t mash on the throttle all the time. When taking off if you keep it around 2k rpms until you get up to speed you can easily get great mpgs. And that it with the occasional getting on the throttle to pass someone or taking off hard just for fun. And if you are coming into a 45 zone or a 30 zone just let off the throttle and coast.

[@Nflguy4949]

My 2021 TRD Pro has 2700 miles. I’m getting 13 mpg just dropping off the kids at school. All neighborhood streets driving with 30 mph speed limit (20mph on school day mornings).

I feel most of the time a Tundra gets 1-2 mpg worse than the domestics v8’s. $10 a gallon gas? I don’t think that will happen.

[@thomasdean5651]

Just finished a trip in my 2013 Tundra with the 4.6L 2WD, from georgia to virginia and averaged 20 mpg doing 65-70 mph, including mountain driving for portions. Ive averaged 22mpg in this truck in the past, but drove no faster than 60-62 mph. I have a 2019 Tundra with the 5.7, 4WD. Ive averaged 20mpg in it also, on long drives, staying 60-65 mpg. Using the cruise control will hurt mileage, as it will use agressive throttle bursts to hold the assigned speed. Have to drive like you have a fresh egg between your foot and the pedal.

[@invisiblecool7483]

I’ve gotten as high as 22 mpg, using this technique. Hypermiling

[@MichaelDavis-dp9pr]

Would love to know what he is doing also. I have a 2016 CM Trd 4wd I drive like an old lady most of the time 24mile loop to work 8miles city driving around with a few red lights mixed in. Then open hey running 55-60 most of the time. Best I can get is 17.3. I drove 100miles 90% highway to my dads at 60 and got 17.3. I keep my RPM below 2k when accelerating unless I have to get out into traffic. 🤷‍♂️ and I have the 5.7

[@AndreiDoroftei]

Funny man

[@Kallu.Media1]

Some days I get great mpg other days is atrocious 😂 all because some days I love to let the v8 sing and other days I'm cruising like a gramps. Just depends how you drive. I don't care what truck you have but if your being a speed racer from light to light and lifted with heavy tires you gonna get terrible mpg no matter what you do. Leave the tundra stock with a good set of highway ats and you'll easily get 18 plus on the highway.

[@rays14ful]

I am going to try this tomorrow. I have to drive my tundra to some oil wells.

[@briand.5321]

[@apexmetalrestoration2805]

My 2020 is only getting 11 mpg.. this is at $5.55 for fuel. It’s killing me. I’m going to radically change how I drive after watching this. I’ll give an update. Edit: In just 2 days of using this method I’ve gone from 11.1 mpg to 12.4 mpg. Only driven the truck twice in this period. Continuing the method to see how high I can make the average.

[@lloydedmonds8775]

I believe your theory works! A good grade gas helps. In the city I’m lucky to get 16 with my ‘21 1874. Best Highway traveling up north was 17. I’m trying not to use cruise control. Folks in the big city have road rage for Grandpa drivers

[@seed001]

You're in a higher altitude

[@pk808]

Details please! Thanks for an interesting video on something I’ve never heard of before.

[@motomikebuilder]

i have a '21 2WD and get similar mileage with freeway and city on both ends. I have yet to do a freeway only test. 20.5 is the best so far. Coasting to the lights when I can and driving bare foot on the way home. The pedal is sensitive when going slow, letting off then giving it the gas. The injector shut off is good to have off throttle but does add to some jerky behavior. Worth the gas savings.

[@common-sense-is-dead]

Still waiting for $10 a gallon gas prices, LOL. Blaming any sitting president for gas prices is ridiculous.

[@mattlaw3600]

[@tundras4ever552]

People think I’m lying when I tell them I get 21-22 mpg on the highway in my tundra 🤷‍♂️ it’s not too difficult, it’s all about proper technique and for me avoiding cruise control as it tends to over rev for no reason. City driving I average 16 ish sometimes 17

[@AndreiDoroftei]

yes, yes

[@Jettro2000]

So you were driving the ford the same way as the tundra. I was thinking about ford but I want the reliability of the Toyota just gas mileage has been my biggest concern. I drive about 80 miles a day for work. 40 of the miles going uphill about 4000 ft elevation. Can you let me know what you get when going up and down hills. I’d appreciate it. If I get a reply I’ll subscribe!! Thank you.

[@AndreiDoroftei]

we did a trip where we got the best MPG ever in the mountains of SW Colorado where we got like 25mpg.... I will do a more in depth video on this topic ... but it should not matter... when u go uphill there is a return downhill... based on the comments I received it seams like 20mpg is a very achievable tundra fuel flow.

[@AndreiDoroftei]

one more thing... because the tundra weighs so much and the engine powerful and thirsty it is very sensitive to throttle inputs when it comes to MPGs ... it does not take much to go from 20mpg to 14mpg.... its learning to ride that line...

[@youarerightboss]

Thanks

[@huggybear2638]

Everyone seems to be impatient and in a hurry . If I glide up to the lights and slowly increase speed setting off from the lights I get dirty looks or people who can't wait and scream past. Including large trucks. Unfortunately there is no patients left even at the super market. I have always driven just inside the speed limit or lower depending on road conditions, etc. I have an RX 450 hybrid, which takes premuim fuel. Here you can get a traffic ticket by exceeding 2 kilometres per hour over the speed limit. But 98% of drivers go over that and most go well over that. Fuel costs keep rising With the cost of fuel rising I may look at an electric car. I prefer hybrid because I have both forms of propulsion. Beside once enough people go on to electric the cost of electricity will go up or there will be a heafty Government tax. In order to get electricity most places still have to burn or use fossil fuels.

[@Suave6869]

if youre easy on throttle youll always get better fuel economy... everyone use to be surprised when i use to get 29mpg out of my 06 Mustang GT with the 4.6V8

That's not true the Ford ecoboost engine is almost on par with a Nissan Altima or cars of that style I usually pay about $120 maybe 150 from California to Arizona and with a EcoBoost Ford truck I rented one time I think I paid $170 there and back that is not bad for a truck problem with the Ford F-150s with EcoBoost is that those engines go out quick they start having header problems around 160 thousand miles.
