Bliss36....i have to ask...what mpg do you get pulling Noahs Ark? I get about 7 to 8 with my truck pulling the h210 and I live in garlands.
I'm addume you have the 5.7 in the Tundra which what I have in the Ram.
Towing we usually get right around 8mpg on the northern trips, and usually a point higher for trip on flat lands with lower speed limits. The hour before we reach Mackinaw Bridge is very hilly so I usually watch my average drop there, also Michigan has high speed limits so that kills the average too. Normal daily driving I average 16-17mpg combined average.
Something interesting about the 3 Tundras Ive had is the 2007 got the best mileage, and they have all had identical drivetrain/gear ratios. The only difference was the 2007 was not a Flex Fuel vehicle and the other 2 are setup to burn ethanol. The same trip to northern Michigan I could average well into the 9s and 18+mpg normal driving. The frustrating part is I have never and would never burn ethanol (E85)in any of my trucks but still see the decrease in mpg probably due to the often inaccurate fuel density sensors and larger injectors needed to make up the inefficiencies of burning ethanol
