Mine averages 20Mpgs.............................................when on a diesel flatbed going with the wind down hill! On a trip in August(220 miles, 20 of it was city type driving), loaded down w/ the family and a weeks worth of luggage/stuff, I got 16.5 driving no faster than 75 and accelerating very conservatively in traffic. I never checked other than that???

I can get 20-22 if I drive like a normal person (55-65 MPH). I have the 3.5L I5, 5-speed manual and Gibson cat-back exhaust.
I normally sit 15-18 MPG in the city, driving it aggressively.

I get near the rated MPG, but I noticed that if you are a little heavier on the foot, it sucks gas like no other :D

Do you have the H3 Hybrid or what?

I've got the 07 3.7L and before i added K&N, PCM and Magnaflow I was able to get 361 miles on 18 gallons, 70mph interstate light load, 3,500miles on odometer.
Checked it recently and still getting around 19-20mpg IF I keep it under 70 and don't go up to many hills. Seems like when the engine revs over 2500 RPM while cruising sustained MPG drops quickly. I run regular 87 octane and have the 32" Non_adv. wheels.
I'm tickled with my mpg, crap it's better than my 03 Tacoma V6 2WD. Best I EVER got on it was 17 on the freeway.

Hey Tinked, I'm surprised you got 20MPG with 33" Adventure tires. That normally shave a few mpg off from the stock 32s.
Judging from your action pics, I may be able to deduce why your mileage isn't what is should be.
