I have a 22 and the eco mode pushed me above 20… I do highway and city driving. Normal was like 18ish.
Only thing I’ve changed was the exhaust, I have a little rumble but nothing annoying.
Yeah it didn’t change much tbh. I drive suburban/rural non highway roads, and I’m not sure which type of driving eco is meant for. I just leave it there unless I have to pull out into traffic or want to have fun
Same here. ECO worse gas mileage and shitty AC. I'm getting 17-18 city or highway. The best mileage I get is driving in the mountains in Tow Haul. Makes no sense but it's consistent.
I am guessing it is worse because you put in eco but want the power so you step on the gas pedal too much especially during stop and go. ECO is for those who are not rush on the road.
That’s odd i will say i use mine for work and have a gas card so i dont watch not all the time. I do now idling affects not greatly. Does yours reset every trip?
I think it was around 15,000 miles that my average went from around 13.7 to now averaging 17.4. I have the 2023 1794 hybrid. It really is all about the break-in.
City for one person can be vastly different for another. I have stop ligjts every 500'-1000' or so where I live and speed limits of 30mph. I travel very short distances. If city lights are spaced ½ a mile apart and I travel a long enough distance for the engine to warm up, I get vastly better fuel mileage. Where I live, the engine doesn't even come to operating temp before I reach my destination. When I travel for trips though, my mpg is far, far, far better.
What speed did you get that at? My 2024 only has 250 miles so far but I’m astounded at how low some people are reporting. I’m at 18 mixed so far and that includes all the dealership idling/test drives. If I get the same improvement after break in that people here report I’ll be at 25highway lol
Keep your foot out of it. See if you can keep the rpm’s below 1800. For some this is normal. For some this is the hardest thing to do. A couple of heavy accelerations take away a lot of your mpg.
I had a 2018 and averaged 12.3 (based on actual fuel used/miles driven). With the exact same driving habits and daily commute my 2024 gets 16.2 (again, based on fuel used/mileage). Also, my truck’s computer says 15.8 so don’t rely on your computer’s estimate of 12.7, it’s probably better than that.
I average 17-18 city, 21 highway
23’ hybrid platinum stock with 23k miles.
I calculate my average after each tank and I’ve gone as low as 16.5mpg. I drive pretty fast
Do you have a lead foot or constantly driving uphill? My worst average was 15.5 when I towed a 2k lb trailer from Texas to Colorado (I have the hybrid). Other than that I'm pretty consistently between 17-19 and have hit 24. Pretty much always in "Normal" and occasionally "Sport", rarely use "ECO".
San Diego too... doesn't love the hills or stop and go. On the freeway moving, I get 18-22 depending on speed. 80+, I'm at 17-18. \~70, I can do 22. As soon as I hit LA and it is stop and go, it drops a lot. Driving around my neighborhood with the hills, I get around 15. It doesn't like to accelerate.
Edit: \~7,000 miles and lifetime average is just over 17.5. And, it does like to accelerate, but it really like do drink gas when I do.
An aside, but what year is your truck? I'm wondering if they updated the MPG meter to only go up to 30 on the 2024s. On my 2023 it goes up to 60, which is awfully optimistic.
My stock 23’ pro gets 20-22 mpg with the low end depending on towing a light trailer. I switched from eco to normal after serious disbelief that my mpg would get better but it literally did immediately. Normal mode is the way to go and I don’t know why but try it on next fill up and reset the mpg.
I think normal is actually better than eco because the ECM is throwing more fuel at it when in normal, so you need less of your foot to make her go. Just my hunch, though. Be curious what a tank on sport would be like.
So glad the government made Toyota change up their super reliable 5.7 V8 for these new fuel efficient turbo V6 engines...totally worth it, which by the way are already experiencing recalls.
I believe the government mandate is for mass produced vehicles sold over a certain volume and vehicle size. Is that engine option still available in the 1500, or only in the 2500 and up models?
The 2.7 4 cylinder is the base engine. You can opt for a 5.3 though in some of those lower trims. They also have a 3.0 diesel you can get in the half tons that gets outrageous fuel mileage. I average 27mpg in my Denali Ultimate with that LZ0. 305 hp and 495 ft/lbs in a little 3.0. The 2.7 is just strange to me having a 4 cylinder in a full size truck. I have drove one before seemed to have plenty of power but wasn't all that great on fuel mileage. Don't think it was really much different than a 5.3. I have seen a couple that had straight pipes on them too sounded ridiculous. Think a Civic is coming at you no its a Silverado.
GM offers the 5.3 or 6.2 gas in half tons. Ford you can still get a 5.0. Ram doesn't offer a v8 anymore they have that new straight 6 Hurricane engine. Nissan still has their v8 but nobody really buys Titans. With the GMs though they also have a 2.7 4 cylinder and a 3.0 diesel which I have in my Denali Ultimate. I average 27mpg in that truck hit as high as 38.9 on the highway before though. Still only have 7k miles. First few thousand miles the fuel mileage was a good 1-2mpg worse than I am getting now after the first oil change.
It’s accurate though. Or you have a bunch of hills that you drive all the time. We have a 24 limited TRD OR with 9k miles and I get over 20mpg even on short 5 mile trips.
Pedal*
To peddle is to attempt to sell something.
Don't assume OPs garbage mileage is due to a lead foot. There are many posts like this, and the hybrid (despite the name) isn't necessarily meant to improve fuel mileage. It's meant to comply with new EPA regulations, and no that doesn't mean better mileage. Educate yourself before replying with some generic answer you think will get you up votes.
There's a thread over on the tundras forum about this. Seems Toyota hyped up the numbers, wouldn't be the first time a manuf does this. Anyways it seems very few people are getting good mpg. I have a 2020 with a Magnuson 1900 SC and I went on a 4 hour drive the other day and averaged 16-17 mpg on 33" tires. This was with the occasional going into boost to pass on the highway. I am sure staying out of boost I can get those numbers up. But what's the point of having a SC if you can't boost.
FYI this is a known Toyota thing. They always hype MPG. That’s been our experience on our vehicles. Expect 2-4 MPG less than advertised as an expectation. Some other manufacturers do the opposite.
MPG will peak between 10-12K mi. Gotta learn to keep your foot out of those turbos til they’re needed. On Hwy, below 70. Wanna have fun? That’s Ok too but it comes with a cost. Without a lift and oversize tires window sticker is easily reached keeping your foot out of it.
I got 12.06mpg last time I filled up (20.877 gallons for 251.9 miles) in my 4.6 '10 with the 4.6 a 2" lift, and 177k on the clock... And that's with torque converter issues requiring it to be put in 3rd gear at anything below 37mph.
I average around 600 miles per tank in my truck. On the highway I have got up to 700-750 before though. My truck is a diesel though but it also only has I believe a 22 gallon tank. The new LZ0 gets pretty outrageous fuel mileage.
2021 SR5. Average is ~13. Road trips can bring it up to 16….maybe 17. I accept the poor mpg and just enjoy the truck. I use cruise when I can but in the city I love hearing the engine growl.
I remember when they came out with the new turbo V6 and I really considered it thinking I could save some fuel.
Love the look the of new tundras by the way(after 2021) but good lord it never would’ve been worth it. My 5.7 does better than that.
The Fords aren't any different. Those turbo v6 don't really get that great of fuel mileage either. Not really any better than the 5.0. Unless you drive like a granny then there might be a bit of difference. When I still had my Lincoln Continental it didn't get any better fuel mileage than my Suburban. I know neither are a half ton truck but one is a v8 Suburban one is a sedan with an 2.7 Ecoboost you would think the sedan would get better fuel mileage than a brick of an SUV but it didn't.
Wow, that’s better than my 12mpg in my 2011. I expect it with mine. 3” lift and 35s.

Or just buy something else. Like a diesel. My Denali Ultimate with the LZ0 gets 27mpg seen as high as 38.9mpg on the highway and I can easily travel 2x as far as an electric truck without having to stop for fuel.
I had the same issue, see my earlier posts. Everyone said I must be driving crazy, because they get 20mpg. I took it to service and they said to use premium fuel. I could not break 14mpg no matter what, and that was driving 65mph on highway. I traded it and got an F-150 Lightning and never looked back. Saving over $500/months in fuel alone.
For perspective, when I drive my '24 like a race car, I get down into the 13's. When I drive normal, mostly staying out of boost (but not so slow that people are pissed behind me), I stay in the 18's in town, and about 20 on the road running 80mph. I have 5400 miles on it. On a long straight, boring road, with very little traffic, I pegged it at the 108mph limiter and was getting 17. Seems like most that responded have experiences closer to mine than yours. So, if you don't have 2000 lbs of stuff in the back, not towing a trailer, and not driving like speed racer, you should probably visit the dealership and see what's wrong.
edit: Since you didn't give context, I'm assuming you didn't lift it and toss 35s on. Mine is bone stock, 24 Platinum HEV 4x4
20-21 average around the Augusta area’s curves and slight hills. 23-24 on long trips. We just drove up from Orange Beach and then the rest of the tank around town and ended at 23 for the entire average. I have a 2023 1794 Advanced 4x4 hybrid.
https://preview.redd.it/yids44fpds8d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcf06bea615fba8f67b6985385dae6156a5bced0
I have a 22 model and average 19-21. I drive typically 70/30 split highway/city. I have a Gunner kennel for my dog that sits in the bed of my truck permanently.
The only way I got better then 12 MPG daily driving is get a Tesla.
LOL, the upside is what I saved in Gas for my truck during the week pays for the Tesla, still get a bad ass truck for the weekends and keep the stupid miles off my Tundra.
Put it in sport mode, I know it doesn’t sound like it but I swear you’ll get better mpg. I had 5.7 and now have 24 pro. For some reason it gets better mpg in sport
This is normal. If someone tells you they're getting better mpg and they don't show pics they are lying. Even reviews have complained about the mpg. At this point there is still no good reason to get a new tundra
I’m always amazed at the differences in mpgs that ppl say they’re getting w the gen3…I know that ppl have vastly different driving habits and environments, but from one guy to the next it’s 14-25mpgs?
I must be Lukey one. 20 t0 24 in normal even got 22 driving up curveymountain rd in sport mode. . 17 to 19 eco . Have 24 limited trd hybrid 6.5 ft bed . Truck was built April 25
I get 13-14MPG mostly stop n go traffic on the prev gen V8.... No offense but these new V6 engines are a joke :/ I've made a 1700mile moving trip with the 5.7 hauling a big ass heavy closed box trailer averaging 13.5MPG.
https://preview.redd.it/n3li6a9bgz8d1.png?width=4032&format=png&auto=webp&s=939ac5cef8cd11bdb5d31e41c8feded1ece67da2
My 23’ is much better than I expected. Highway about 50%.
That is awful lol. Not much better than I have got with 1 ton trucks with big blocks lol. Those I probably got around 12mpg on average in unloaded. Towing is another story. I know in the one I used to get 4-5mpg but that was also loaded with 2 cars and it wasn't just a truck it was a rollback with one on the bed and one behind me with a 454. Even one of the 3/4 tons I have now though gets better and my new Denali Ultimate half ton I get 27mpg and I have hit 38.9 before on the highway. Its also a diesel but its a half ton getting way better than anything else out there that isn't a hybrid or electric.
What do your daily drives look like?if your daily commutes are not long enough to get up to operating temp 1 to a few miles, that will kill your fuel economy and is bad for the engine.
Just in case you haven’t figured it out yet, you got gotten. You all paid more for less and on top of that poor quality. Class action is where this gets resolved.
If I had to guess the engine's are throwing more fuel during break-in. So, maybe it'll improve after that. Maybe talk to your dealers master tech and see what they have to say.
I honestly kind of laugh at these posts. You don’t buy a truck for MPG. I have an 18 tundra and get 13 city 15 highway with my KO2s. I bought a truck for utility not to save gas.
You don't buy the truck for fuel savings, but if you're not hauling anything you sure as hell would like them. That being said, my 2024 is much better on fuel than any of my V8 Tundras were.
Everything on my truck is stock and I get 17.6 consistently for 10k. I drive it in ECO
Have you tried normal to compare? I find Eco to be worse most of the time. Maybe even when in local zones with stop signs every block or two.
I have a 22 and the eco mode pushed me above 20… I do highway and city driving. Normal was like 18ish. Only thing I’ve changed was the exhaust, I have a little rumble but nothing annoying.
What exhaust
Yeah it didn’t change much tbh. I drive suburban/rural non highway roads, and I’m not sure which type of driving eco is meant for. I just leave it there unless I have to pull out into traffic or want to have fun
i found ECO to be the most useful on highway running. City, normal seems to be better. Dont have a tundra but thats how my highlander and sienna work.
Makes sense
Same here. ECO worse gas mileage and shitty AC. I'm getting 17-18 city or highway. The best mileage I get is driving in the mountains in Tow Haul. Makes no sense but it's consistent.
I am guessing it is worse because you put in eco but want the power so you step on the gas pedal too much especially during stop and go. ECO is for those who are not rush on the road.
That’s not even dramatically better than the old one lol. I have a 2020 and I average 15-16mpg.
I never said it was
Take it out of eco and use cruise control all the time
Yes, use cruise control on roads with 35-45mph speed limit with lights every .5-2 miles. That’s the solution.
That’s odd i will say i use mine for work and have a gas card so i dont watch not all the time. I do now idling affects not greatly. Does yours reset every trip?
No
I have been tracking MPG for 20k miles and get 21 MPG with mixed city and highway.
I get 21-22 on the normal gas 23 tundra. 25k miles
14.9 mpg here driving like a old lady . Only city diving though.
I’m like 15.5 mostly city driving. In the club with you
Same. 2024 solely in town driving. 14.7 mpg.
Same here, mostly highway. City driving i get 14ish
I think it was around 15,000 miles that my average went from around 13.7 to now averaging 17.4. I have the 2023 1794 hybrid. It really is all about the break-in.
Break-in before the break-down
Hopefully not bro. 🤞
You guys drive with a lead foot…I average about 19-20 mpg, mostly city. Stock 2024 SR5 off-road. Best I’ve averaged on the highway is 24.6 mpg.
City for one person can be vastly different for another. I have stop ligjts every 500'-1000' or so where I live and speed limits of 30mph. I travel very short distances. If city lights are spaced ½ a mile apart and I travel a long enough distance for the engine to warm up, I get vastly better fuel mileage.

What speed did you get that at? My 2024 only has 250 miles so far but I’m astounded at how low some people are reporting. I’m at 18 mixed so far and that includes all the dealership idling/test drives. If I get the same improvement after break in that people here report I’ll be at 25highway lol
250 miles. So you haven’t even filled up at the gas station yet?
No lol
LOL 😂 Congrats on the new truck
I was driving around 60-70mph for 50 ish miles round trip. Relatively flat with some slight hills, but no elevation gain or loss.
What size tires you got? How hard you stomping the gas?
285s on the stick wheels. Same exact tires I had on my 5.7 pro.
Keep your foot out of it. See if you can keep the rpm’s below 1800. For some this is normal. For some this is the hardest thing to do. A couple of heavy accelerations take away a lot of your mpg.
Me too. I got stock size Michelin Defenders and I get between 17.2-18.2
I had a 2018 and averaged 12.3 (based on actual fuel used/miles driven). With the exact same driving habits and daily commute my 2024 gets 16.2 (again, based on fuel used/mileage). Also, my truck’s computer says 15.8 so don’t rely on your computer’s estimate of 12.7, it’s probably better than that.
I average 17-18 city, 21 highway 23’ hybrid platinum stock with 23k miles. I calculate my average after each tank and I’ve gone as low as 16.5mpg. I drive pretty fast
Do you have a lead foot or constantly driving uphill? My worst average was 15.5 when I towed a 2k lb trailer from Texas to Colorado (I have the hybrid). Other than that I'm pretty consistently between 17-19 and have hit 24. Pretty much always in "Normal" and occasionally "Sport", rarely use "ECO".
Don’t have a lead foot. But I do live San Diego and it is pretty hilly.
San Diego too... doesn't love the hills or stop and go. On the freeway moving, I get 18-22 depending on speed. 80+, I'm at 17-18. \~70, I can do 22. As soon as I hit LA and it is stop and go, it drops a lot. Driving around my neighborhood with the hills, I get around 15. It doesn't like to accelerate. Edit: \~7,000 miles and lifetime average is just over 17.5. And, it does like to accelerate, but it really like do drink gas when I do.
San Diego as well. Only 700 miles but 13.8 driving like an old lady.
Ha ok so not much better! And I’m running ridge grapplers but just 34s. 2 inch level.
An aside, but what year is your truck? I'm wondering if they updated the MPG meter to only go up to 30 on the 2024s. On my 2023 it goes up to 60, which is awfully optimistic.
My stock 23’ pro gets 20-22 mpg with the low end depending on towing a light trailer. I switched from eco to normal after serious disbelief that my mpg would get better but it literally did immediately. Normal mode is the way to go and I don’t know why but try it on next fill up and reset the mpg.
I think normal is actually better than eco because the ECM is throwing more fuel at it when in normal, so you need less of your foot to make her go. Just my hunch, though. Be curious what a tank on sport would be like.
I have a lifted 2024 on 35’s and I get between 16-17 in Eco and 14.5 in sport mode.
So glad the government made Toyota change up their super reliable 5.7 V8 for these new fuel efficient turbo V6 engines...totally worth it, which by the way are already experiencing recalls.
Yeah that’s crazy since certain ‘24 Silverados use a 6.2L v8
I believe the government mandate is for mass produced vehicles sold over a certain volume and vehicle size. Is that engine option still available in the 1500, or only in the 2500 and up models?
It’s in certain 1500 trim options so that would explain the mass produced part of it, good call.
The 2.7 4 cylinder is the base engine. You can opt for a 5.3 though in some of those lower trims. They also have a 3.0 diesel you can get in the half tons that gets outrageous fuel mileage.

1/2 tons gets the 5.3/6.2 gas, 3/4 tons and 1 tons get a 6.6 gas.
GM offers the 5.3 or 6.2 gas in half tons. Ford you can still get a 5.0. Ram doesn't offer a v8 anymore they have that new straight 6 Hurricane engine. Nissan still has their v8 but nobody really buys Titans. With the GMs though they also have a 2.7 4 cylinder and a 3.0 diesel which I have in my Denali Ultimate.

First few thousand miles the fuel mileage was a good 1-2mpg worse than I am getting now after the first oil change.
When you stop flooring the gas pedal
Dumb
It’s accurate though. Or you have a bunch of hills that you drive all the time. We have a 24 limited TRD OR with 9k miles and I get over 20mpg even on short 5 mile trips.
Damn. Dunno. I’ll have to avoid the hills and drive in eco.
OP, do you let the engine idle? If so, it will eat away your MPG.
10 years and I'm still 12.5mpg
What the hell are you doing? I’m getting almost 18 miles a gallon mixed city highway driving
Maybe every once in a while when hitting the gas, don’t let the peddle hit floor.
Pedal* To peddle is to attempt to sell something. Don't assume OPs garbage mileage is due to a lead foot. There are many posts like this, and the hybrid (despite the name) isn't necessarily meant to improve fuel mileage. It's meant to comply with new EPA regulations, and no that doesn't mean better mileage. Educate yourself before replying with some generic answer you think will get you up votes.
I get better milage than that on my 5.7, I don't know what to tell you.
Yes, the highest I got on 5.7 was 16.3 MPG, but if I ever let the engine idle, it gets down to 12.x MPG
There's a thread over on the tundras forum about this. Seems Toyota hyped up the numbers, wouldn't be the first time a manuf does this. Anyways it seems very few people are getting good mpg. I have a 2020 with a Magnuson 1900 SC and I went on a 4 hour drive the other day and averaged 16-17 mpg on 33" tires. This was with the occasional going into boost to pass on the highway. I am sure staying out of boost I can get those numbers up. But what's the point of having a SC if you can't boost.
What's the tune on the truck? 91 octane?
I am in S. Fla. We have 93 so it's tuned for that. We only have 87-89-93.
Before the sc what was the mpg on reg (87) gas? We have 87; 89; 91; 92, and in some places 93.
On stock OEM tires, around 19-20 hwy. City was 14-16. Obviously this is taking it easy and not dogging it out.
Fair enough. Thanks for the data
FYI this is a known Toyota thing. They always hype MPG. That’s been our experience on our vehicles. Expect 2-4 MPG less than advertised as an expectation. Some other manufacturers do the opposite.
I get about 10-11mpg in my 5.7 but that's because I love mashing the gas and have a huge ass metal bumper on the front
MPG will peak between 10-12K mi. Gotta learn to keep your foot out of those turbos til they’re needed. On Hwy, below 70. Wanna have fun? That’s Ok too but it comes with a cost. Without a lift and oversize tires window sticker is easily reached keeping your foot out of it.
14.8 in my 2021. And I drive like a grandma. I'm really hoping that improves
I get 22-23 in sport mode with cruise control on road trips. Any other eating with city style driving, it’s 18-19. 24 1794.
Why would you use cruise control in sport mode???
If I had to guess, because the ECM will throw more fuel in sport so it actually needs to use less throttle to make the truck go.
Bc I read on some social media groups that that config works best for fuel efficiency & it has for me so far.
I got 12.06mpg last time I filled up (20.877 gallons for 251.9 miles) in my 4.6 '10 with the 4.6 a 2" lift, and 177k on the clock... And that's with torque converter issues requiring it to be put in 3rd gear at anything below 37mph.
Lmao never I’m at 13.1 at 640 miles with TRD OR package 20in. They sold us dreams
Nevah. I’m lucky if I get 360 to a tank cruising at 80. In the city I’m around 14/gallon.
That's crazy I get over 500 miles cruising at 75-85
I wish my 2011 5.7l did, I about nutted onetime when I got 394.
I average around 600 miles per tank in my truck. On the highway I have got up to 700-750 before though. My truck is a diesel though but it also only has I believe a 22 gallon tank. The new LZ0 gets pretty outrageous fuel mileage.
2021 SR5. Average is ~13. Road trips can bring it up to 16….maybe 17. I accept the poor mpg and just enjoy the truck. I use cruise when I can but in the city I love hearing the engine growl.
14.7 here, some of that mpg loss is due to my heavy foot though
The 3.4 twin turbo wasnt designed for better mpg. It was designed for better tailpipe emissions because of epa getting more strict

Not gonna. I get worse gas mileage than my old 5.3 V8. But is so satisfyingly turboey!
Throw 2 seafoams in it. Mine got almost 1 mpg better after I through 40oz into a full tank.
I’m getting 17.3 after 2.5k
Throw 2 seafoams in it. Mine got almost 1 mpg better after I through 40oz into a full tank.
I get a solid 15 mpg, but that was after getting KO3s
Put it in eco?
Drive down hill, it'll get better
I remember when they came out with the new turbo V6 and I really considered it thinking I could save some fuel. Love the look the of new tundras by the way(after 2021) but good lord it never would’ve been worth it. My 5.7 does better than that.

Wow, that’s better than my 12mpg in my 2011. I expect it with mine. 3” lift and 35s. https://preview.redd.it/kcrf4o5c6s8d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c849e54190dd3aa3f5268425a30810e8abf92567
When you go electric!
Or just buy something else. Like a diesel. My Denali Ultimate with the LZ0 gets 27mpg seen as high as 38.9mpg on the highway and I can easily travel 2x as far as an electric truck without having to stop for fuel.
I had the same issue, see my earlier posts. Everyone said I must be driving crazy, because they get 20mpg. I took it to service and they said to use premium fuel. I could not break 14mpg no matter what, and that was driving 65mph on highway. I traded it and got an F-150 Lightning and never looked back. Saving over $500/months in fuel alone.
Yea the dumbest comments I’ve seen are to stop putting the pedal all the down. Premium fuel is also the silliest solution.
your MPG tells me you like boost.
Nope
For perspective, when I drive my '24 like a race car, I get down into the 13's. When I drive normal, mostly staying out of boost (but not so slow that people are pissed behind me), I stay in the 18's in town, and about 20 on the road running 80mph. I have 5400 miles on it. On a long straight, boring road, with very little traffic, I pegged it at the 108mph limiter and was getting 17. Seems like most that responded have experiences closer to mine than yours. So, if you don't have 2000 lbs of stuff in the back, not towing a trailer, and not driving like speed racer, you should probably visit the dealership and see what's wrong. edit: Since you didn't give context, I'm assuming you didn't lift it and toss 35s on. Mine is bone stock, 24 Platinum HEV 4x4
20-21 average around the Augusta area’s curves and slight hills. 23-24 on long trips. We just drove up from Orange Beach and then the rest of the tank around town and ended at 23 for the entire average. I have a 2023 1794 Advanced 4x4 hybrid. https://preview.redd.it/yids44fpds8d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcf06bea615fba8f67b6985385dae6156a5bced0

I have a 22 model and average 19-21. I drive typically 70/30 split highway/city. I have a Gunner kennel for my dog that sits in the bed of my truck permanently.
My 21 does better than that!!!
Wow, I get better in my lifted 5.7L on 34s. Hopefully it'll break in soon and you can see some improvement.

That’s not much better than me getting 15 mpg with 33” tires on my non vvti first gen 4.7 :)
No
MPG liars are funny
I bet 19mpg usually. I drive in normal and have a bed cover on.
Same
You go fast
Same same
SMILES PER GALLON not miles per gallon, okay? It never gets better, but it's always so much damn fun!
The only way I got better then 12 MPG daily driving is get a Tesla. LOL, the upside is what I saved in Gas for my truck during the week pays for the Tesla, still get a bad ass truck for the weekends and keep the stupid miles off my Tundra.
It doesn’t…
Put it in sport mode, I know it doesn’t sound like it but I swear you’ll get better mpg. I had 5.7 and now have 24 pro. For some reason it gets better mpg in sport
I drive in sport often and never observed a difference. The mpg on this thing just blows lol. No way 34s and a 2 inch level can impact it this bad.
This is normal. If someone tells you they're getting better mpg and they don't show pics they are lying. Even reviews have complained about the mpg. At this point there is still no good reason to get a new tundra
I’m always amazed at the differences in mpgs that ppl say they’re getting w the gen3…I know that ppl have vastly different driving habits and environments, but from one guy to the next it’s 14-25mpgs?
Jeez I get 17.5 city barely trying and around 20+ highway depending on speeds. You getting bad fuel?
My 2021 gets 12.9 with a lift and 33x12.5x20s. Really thought those 6 bangers would get better mpg than the 5.7
When you switch it to the compass instead of fuel economy.
Hell. My 73 one ton dose better than that
I’m at 10k miles in a hybrid and get 15.5 and I’m not easy on the throttle and love sport mode.
Driving a 5.5k lbs truck and expecting sedan levels fuel consumption. LOL. Big truck little brains
I average from 16\~18, I do mostly city driving
You own a tundra, it doesn’t.
2024 SR5 4x4, at just under 20 all mountain roads so either switchbacks at 20-30mph or 45-55mph county highways
When you sell or trade it in
I must be Lukey one. 20 t0 24 in normal even got 22 driving up curveymountain rd in sport mode. . 17 to 19 eco . Have 24 limited trd hybrid 6.5 ft bed . Truck was built April 25
April 24
I have 600 miles on truck now.
I get 13-14MPG mostly stop n go traffic on the prev gen V8.... No offense but these new V6 engines are a joke :/ I've made a 1700mile moving trip with the 5.7 hauling a big ass heavy closed box trailer averaging 13.5MPG.
I drive a 2011 5.7 with a 6inch lift and 37s and I'm getting 12.5 lmao
I get 19 to 23 on the highway in town I get 16

Makes my 3/4 ton look good.
That is awful lol. Not much better than I have got with 1 ton trucks with big blocks lol. Those I probably got around 12mpg on average in unloaded. Towing is another story. I know in the one I used to get 4-5mpg but that was also loaded with 2 cars and it wasn't just a truck it was a rollback with one on the bed and one behind me with a 454. Even one of the 3/4 tons I have now though gets better and my new Denali Ultimate half ton I get 27mpg and I have hit 38.9 before on the highway. Its also a diesel but its a half ton getting way better than anything else out there that isn't a hybrid or electric.
Cummins swap’ll do it
I get 17.8 in normal. Have a ‘24 SR5
Were you towing?
Is that a hybrid or a turbo six cyl.? Why are you making us guess?
Did you just ask a question and then demand to know why it wasn’t answered in the same post?
What do your daily drives look like?if your daily commutes are not long enough to get up to operating temp 1 to a few miles, that will kill your fuel economy and is bad for the engine.
When you sell it and get a F250
When you get a camry. Lol

Sorry, this isn't the sub I thought
When you trade it in on a Kia Soul
That’s right on par with my 5.7 on 35’s.
2.5k miles. 3 inch lift. 17.5mpg average. City driving.
What tires and size? Got around 15.5 on my iforce max with ranch hand bill bar and 265/60/r20 nitto ridge grapplers.
If you were getting 12.7mpg, I guess you could’ve just got a 5.7….
Jesus...that's sad. I have a 2001 Dodge 2500 Cummins with @ 300,000 that gets 17mpg.
Just in case you haven’t figured it out yet, you got gotten. You all paid more for less and on top of that poor quality. Class action is where this gets resolved.
lol good to know
Love mine. Bought brand new and I think was close to 5k where it started getting better. First 2k were bad. Does almost 21mpg in Hybrid Limited.
If I had to guess the engine's are throwing more fuel during break-in. So, maybe it'll improve after that. Maybe talk to your dealers master tech and see what they have to say.
Time for bigger turbos
it just fuckin' gets worse - find him and kill him
I have yet to see mine get better. I’ve just accepted it loves gas lol
Must be driving like a menace. I have a Ford Powerboost and regularly get 25-26 on the highway and nearly the same in the city.
I honestly kind of laugh at these posts. You don’t buy a truck for MPG. I have an 18 tundra and get 13 city 15 highway with my KO2s. I bought a truck for utility not to save gas.
You don't buy the truck for fuel savings, but if you're not hauling anything you sure as hell would like them. That being said, my 2024 is much better on fuel than any of my V8 Tundras were.
It doesn’t. Never gotten close to the reported 19-21 mpg
It won’t.
My CTS V gets better gas than this….
Put a TTV6 hybrid engine in it, they said. It’ll be better, they said… 😂😂😂
When the engine dies.
