Toyota FJ Cruiser Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 260-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	I average 11.5l/100 km almost all the time, about two thirds distance on highway. Uses more petrol than a small car, but reasonable. My previous Audi A3 2.0T could run in circles around an FJ, but it couldn't take me on dirt roads etc. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

2008	4dr SUV 239-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Any vehicle in this class is by no means a fuel sipper, the FJ averaged between 15 and 19 mpg. In 4wd during winter snowstorms it got about 13mpg. Not bad compared to some, but I grew to dislike this. see full Toyota FJ Cruiser review

2009	4dr SUV 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	Coming from a Trailblazer, we like the average of 21-22 MPG in mixed driving, as were used to about 17 MPG. Fuel economy climbs toward the rated 26 MPG the more highway driving we do. see full Mercury Mariner review
2007	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	For the first almost three years after we got the car, it gave 21+ mpg in town & 24+ mpg on the road. see full Mercury Mariner review
2005	4dr SUV 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic AWD	For an SUV with a 4cyl and 4wd I get avg of 22 MPG mixed city and highway. I usually get 23-26 on freeway only. This is good. see full Mercury Mariner review

Mercury Mariner Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic AWD	For some reason when new Michelin All Terrain tires with Nitrogen air replaced the Champions from the factory, it plummeted to 17 & 20 mpg. No explanation from Michelin, Costco or Ford/Mercury - they have no idea why. see full Mercury Mariner review
