Fuel Tank Capacity

What was Toyota thinking when designing the 4th gen and putting a smaller gas tank than the 3rd gen?? I have had mine since January and I have yet to get at least 300 miles out of a tank. Closer to 270 is what I’m averaging. I drive mostly city but still having to refuel this often sucks.

We all feel you, haha. The tank should be bigger. Tough to say this early, but there may be enough complaints to see an upgrade down the line when they do a refresh. In the meantime, we'll have to wait and see what auxiliary or larger gas tanks are made available.

Maybe Long Range America will come out with something.

I am only getting 254 miles per tank (16.8 mpg if I baby it). This really sucks when I have to gas up when I leave home and then gas again before I get home on trips that I had no problem with my 2012 X-terra (range 300-325). I look forward to someone coming up with a larger tank replacement or auxiliary tank.
