1/2 ton pickups fuel mileage ?
CP:
My 2.7 Ecoboost could get 23mpg on the highway if I kept the speed at less than 70 and kept the turbos from kicking in. It averaged 18 for mostly stop & go driving. But it is also capable of single digits when in sport mode.
Wetwoodshunter:
I have a longbed 2014 Toyota Tundra with the V8 5.7i in it. I get 14.7 mpg, 9 if towing a 31’ 9,000 lb trailer.
Sandberm:
Older pickup but maybe relevant because of the engine.
2008 chevy 1500 4wd with the 5.3 liter. I have a Range Technologies "chip", for a lack of a better term, plugged into the OBDII to keep the AFM/DOD engine locked into running on 8 cylinders.
16 mpg
fowl smacker:
I've got a 2017 Tundra crew max that is leveled with 275/70/18 Cooper discoverer at3 xlt which is a little bigger than stock and heavier. I average 13.8-14.2 mpg. 103k on it. Best part about it is I've had absolutely 0 issues whatsoever. Change the oil every 5k, do routine fluid changes and I have no doubt it'll last 500k.

I have the same experience with mine mechanically. I have 140,000 on mine hoping to go to 300,000.
