I see below someone asked what dont you like about you titan.
I didnt buy the titan for gas mileage but bought it for towing. I thought I'd get about 10 MPG while towing but only get 7.7 to 8.8 at best. Without towing I get anywhere from 12.7 to 15.6 depending on how much I'm getting on the gas.
How are yours doing?
By the way my trailer weighs about 7000 lbs loaded and I drive just over 60 MPH
God bless

I get anywhere from 13.5 to 16 just normal into and around town driving. Pulling my Scout on the trailer(almost 7k together) I get around 9.5. I pulled a trailer with almost 5 tons of landscaping stones(I know I shouldn't have) I got about 9 on that tank of gas, pulled the trailer about 150 of the 300 miles.

I'm getting 18.5 driving about 60/40 highway/city without towing anything.

I noticed my last tank I only got about 300 miles on it. Down from about 350.

 

[JetTech]

14.5 to 15.2 with my foot stuck to the floor. I know it would do better if I let off a little bit but I just can't help it... :twisted: I did get an outstanding 16.88 on a trip once....

Best I've seen so far as been 17.6. Worst has been 13.4.

I average 15.5-16.5 back/forth to work all week 65/35 highway/city.

Have about 7000 miles, and still notice it's getting better.

I have noticed my mileage getting worse the more miles I put on my Titan.

 

[firecracker]

well, I just changed over to Mobil 1 about 500 miles or so. That probably has something to do with it.

 

[k9mrussell]

I just changed over to Mobil 1 on last tank. I will give it a few tanks before I make any judgement on the mileage.

21 on highway

21 on highway

That's sweeeeet!!

 

[SmokedTitan]

I got right at 17 one time on an all hiway trip, but I average closer to 14.5 I would say. I do a lot of short trips most of the time.

 

[Sugarloafer623]

With only 1100 miles, I am getting about 15.5 to 15.7 on my Crew Cab. I drive about 70/30 highway/city.

 

[lroshau]

I get 14.5 to 15, all highway 65mph
seems to be getting worse

 

[Endurance4life]

MPG

I have over 8000 miles on my Titan because I live in Texas and drive to college in Kansas which is about 500 miles one way. I have seen a best of 20.5 on the highway and on average 13.5 to 14 in the city.

all you guys should consider yourselves lucky. i can't seem to get over 12.5. and i swear i don't drive like a maniac. it is about 90% city (by city i mean Columbus, GA, not exactly bumper to bumper stuff here), but still that sucks! what gives??? anyone have a suggestion?

 

[juanacoffee]

I get a lot better mileage than my old 5.7 Chev Z71 got! I pull a 4000lb trailer and I don't even know it's back there! The chev used to really struggle on any incline and it worked a lot harder.

One of our managers here was also getting about 12 or so, he said he was going to the dealer to have them reset his computer, I haven't talked to him to see if it is any better, though. I'll try to get back with you on that. His thinking was that the truck was 'broke-in' a little different than he really drives it now, anyway, he seemed to think the computer programmed itself for that type of driving, so now it's different.



:?: does that make any sense? :idea:

MPG

My truck got 15 1/2 to 16 miles per gallon when I bought it, did airbox mod, changed exhaust system to dual magnaflows, now I have and (this is no joke) 52,500 miles on the speedo, and I still get the exact same MPG, oh and by the way don't waste your money on premium gas thinking the mph will go up, it doesn't

 

[cweb69]

yeah, that makes sense except for my truck only had 26 miles on it when I took it home. I hardly think that's enough to "break it in."

but let me know if you hear anything on that other Titan.

thanks!
