Decided to make the switch to premium fuel to see what would happen... For reference, I also have the hybrid. I've heard that making the switch isn't simply something you feel from one tank, but rather several as your truck adapts to a higher octane. I was skeptical, and I could always be imagining it, but I swear it feels like it has more get up and go. And even better, it seems that the MPGs have improved, at least around town on an average commute of 20ish miles. Given how built my truck is, lots of added weight and reduced aerodynamics, my hybrid already did pretty good. I average about 16-17 mpg with no problem and a good commute could get up to 20 or so. With the premium gas, the good commute average went up closer to 21 mpg. Granted, this is me trying to see how good I can get it, without any crazy throttle input. Quick screenshot below of my dash readings. This is an average after a day of driving after a reset. And this has to be adjusted 10%, which comes out to 20 mpg. Anyone else tried it? Let me know what you experienced, if anything. Obviously, there are a lot of factors here. Toyota tunes these trucks with premium gas, so this is likely part of the equation. Using what the truck was designed for. Premium is also better for the longevity of any turbo motor. Next up, I'll be adding a Cobb Accessport with a custom OTT tune from Big Dawgs Toyota Tuning. Lots more to come there... A quick shot of the truck as it sits now.

What up Fam?

I got the Billie Bars cross bar system and I absolutely love their products. Every thing is easy to use and extremely sturdy. With that said, I have a wheel table thats driving me nuts in the bed of the truck so I thought of putting brackets underneath the crossbars but I haven’t been able to come up with how I would lock the table in from being able to get taken or fly out while driving. Do any of you know a bracket that I could used thats able to lock somehow? If not I gotta ask Billie bars to make one! Would make carrying around that table so much easier!
