Seems like a tough question since it depends on what size cab you get and if you are towing anything. From my understanding it will get 14 or so in town and 18 on highway. However, that is unloaded and probably not driving faster than 65.

The actual specs are 13 city/ 17 hwy for that Toyota Tundra, but like testerdahl said, that could be affected if you're towing anything. Being in 4X4 drive might decrease it as well. Definitely worth it for the power though!

the same as the previous models basically. not much has changed in that regard.

I get above the window sticker which is 13/17. I get more like 15-16 city 18-19 highway, which is good for a truck with almost 400 horse.

I got 23 the other day on a county highway (50-55mph) for about 35-50 miles. That's the nice thing about northern IL, it's so flat you could roll a marble across the entire state and it wouldn't stop
