Mine gets anywhere from about 16.5 to 20 mpg, depending on how you drive. If you take it easy on the highway and drive 55-60 mph it will do 20 all day long. If you get on the interstate and stay ahead of traffic it’s about 16-17. I do have 10 ply tires on mine so that eats some of my gas mileage. Loading it up also affects mileage. What motor do you have in yours? I have the 6cyl

Good Lord, my full-size Silverado averages right at 22 mpg. I would hate to downsize and get worse mileage! I think that's one of the reasons I went that direction in 2018, after looking at and test driving the Tacoma's. Well, that and there is no comparison in comfort, power and hauling capacity.

Most vehicles, regardless of make or model will drop in mileage once you get 60-80K. The rings and other engine components start to get loose and your mileage will drop.

The ball joints tend to blow out on Toyota Tacoma's. So much for reliability. You see them broke down beside the road fairly regular. Tons of Tacoma's in my neighborhood.

In 722,000 miles, I've never had a ball joint blow out. I've replaced them twice when they started squeaking. I think it was the generation after mine that had ball joint problems.
