People drive really fast . My wife has a 2023 highlander limited awd with the 2.4 turbo . If we drive at 70-75 mph our mpg is around 28-30 mpg . But he we do 60ish I can get it up to about almost 40 mpg . At least that’s what the screen is telling me . And cruising manually with my foot instead of using the cruise control . The gas savings is big enough to notice .

As a life long GM guy that has only bought GM trucks and one GM SUV, my next truck will be a Chevy Colorado Trail Boss but MAN this Toyota Tacoma LOOKS GOOD! I am VERY tempted to buy the Tacoma TRD OFF ROAD, but after the options I want its MSRP is $52K and after dealer markups I know it would be about $57K and even if I get a new old stock of last years model year a few years from now it would be about $46K at the very least and the Colorado Trail Boss MSRP the way I would spec it would be $42K and thats with 360 cameras, trailer package, and the 2 convivence packages, and the rest of the goodies I would add later so I wouldn't be paying interest on them for 6yrs. And since I will try to get a new old stock last model year still on the lot in a few years, it should be as low as $38K so yeah about a $10K difference and to me someone that doesn't want to spend over $40K for a truck thats more in my price range. And yes I know you get more off road suspension with that $10K in the TRD off road but I will try to get into some light off roading but probably nothing to extreme so the Trail Boss should handle the light stuff I will try. BUT MAN THAT TACO LOOKS GOOD INSIDE AND OUT! AND THE SUSPENSION IS PURE OFF ROAD! But too bad for me I can't justify the $10K more about from the Colorado Trail Boss the way I would spec it, $42K vs $52K. MAN I'm a triple black kinda guy BUT THAT GRAY accent in the interior POPS! MAN IT LOOKS GOOD! I WISH THE COLORADO TRAIL BOSS HAD THAT OPTION!
