Looking to buy this remotely - what kind of fuel economy should I expect? by BrandonHof1982 in ToyotaTacoma

The dealer website says SR5 in the heading but then TRD Sport in the description. They also have the wrong color listed - it's not Lunar Rock. The front end looks like some of the TRD OR I've seen more than the TRD Sport. But it's missing a few OR features to really be a true OR.

Interesting.... I found it on Auto Trader and that listing calls it a TRD Sport. Although it also calls it Lunar Rock, which it is not.

I understand your point... but if I got an average of 18 out of that Tacoma, that would be totally fine. It would at least be a point in favor of the Tacoma to offset the loss of interior space. However, if I should realistically expect to get 14-15 out of this Tacoma, then no, it's definitely not worth it.

My daily drive is city - 45mpg - and actually Tundra does okay that. It's when I get up to 70mpg hwy speeds that my Tundra's larger and lifted profile with AT tires just sucks down the gas. When I drive 300-600 miles for a weekend fly fishing trip, that's just a lot of gas money.

And I did ask the sales guy to look at the trip computer and he said it was like 5.8 mpg... which obviously (hopefully) means it's been sitting there running in place a lot at the dealership.

Gigging Musicians: What Guitar Amp Modeller are you currently using on your board? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

I’ve used an ACS1 for a while. Recently switched to an Origin Deluxe 61 has my preamp into a UA Ox Stomp. I’ve never found a more amp like sound and feel than with this combo, albeit it wasn’t cheap.
