I just bought my Titan, but its a new 04. I have just over a thousand mile and I can't get better than 12.5 mpg.  When I first started driving it I was getting 9 mpg.  Don't get me wrong I love this truck, but I think I am going to have to ask for a raise.

I bought mine in Aug o4, and live in the sierras. low mileage short trip is 12mpg. out on the open, we average around 20mpg. the tach hangs @1700rpm doing 75mph.  power is NEVER an issue, loaded or empty.  usually 86 octane.

Are you low mileagers living in humidity? or have funny emmissions laws? I have to burn MTBE in my fuel for California, and CA smog regulations, and haven't had any markedly poor mileage.  Are you running stock tires, and are they inflated properly

You can't go by the guage, the're wacky, you know.  Divide your miles by gallons used (actual) and that will give you your mp
