YearBody/PowertrainComment
2014 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 381-horsepower 5.7L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 One of my biggest complaints on the Tundra is the poor mpg. The big three's mpg all surpass the Tundra's. I guess this the downfall for reliability and durability. In CA, no one manufactures a larger fuel tank to replace the tiny factory one that passes the rediculous SMOG rules. What does a fuel tank have to do with SMOG? see full Toyota Tundra review
2008 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 381-horsepower 5.7L V8
6-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 its really unbeleviable that i get the mileage i get with the towing capability and power this thing has i am really speechless i traded in a 2005 Nissan Frontier 4X4 double cab that only got 14-16 mpg and 8mpg when pulling 20 ft bass boat. see full Toyota Tundra review

2007 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 381-horsepower 5.7L V8
6-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 Was ok in the beginning. 18ish on the highway and 15 in mixed driving. Since adding ethonal to the gas here in VT down to about 11.5 in mixed driving. see full Toyota Tundra review
2005 2dr Regular Cab 8ft bed 282-horsepower 4.7L V8
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 15/18 EPA at least partly due to the lack of V-6 or manual transmission option with 4x4. Comparable GM trucks are better in this area. see full Toyota Tundra review
2003 4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 245-horsepower 4.7L V8
4-speed automatic RWD		 All V-8 full size trucks get poor gas mileage. The Tundra gets 15 - 17 mpg see full Toyota Tundra review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Lexus RX

Lexus RX Real Gas Mileage: Pros
YearComment
2013 The new transmission doesn't affect EPA city mpg, which remains a competitive if not outstanding 18. Highway mpg receives a bump from 24 to 26, putting it two to three mpg over most competitors. At a steady 75 mph, the F Sport engine is spinning 1,950 rpm, vs. 2,300 in the regular RX with a six-speed automatic. In suburban driving with the engine warmed up the trip computer typically reported 22 mpg. A very light foot bumped this by three mpg, while a heavy one sunk it by about the same. Buyers who put a high priority on fuel economy will prefer the RX 400h hybrid. It earns EPA ratings of 32 city, 28 highway, and is even a little quicker than the RX 350. Real-world suburban mpg appears to be about 29. see full Lexus RX review
