4x4 / Off-Road TechThis section contains all discussion related to taking the FJ Cruiser in Off-Road situations, 4x4 applications and any armor modifications.
I see many well meaning followers state they got xx MPG on this tank and xx MPG on that tank and the like. That is pure adulterated cr*ap! Without averaging your useage over several tankfuls you are doing the devils work. So you don't continue to anoy Me I will give you God's Way of Calculating MPG's.
Prerequisites:
Have your tires aired up to spec---the 10psi you run in Moab Mode wont do you any good.
Take the luggage off the roof from the recent trip to Wally World.
Remove the bags of Portland Cement from the Vast Rear Area.
Have the Great Big Four Litre broken in---3K ought to do it.
Fill your tank till the pump shuts off---it must be full on the First Recording.
God said so. Keep a tablet. Write in list form the current mileage. Write number of gallons filled. Write how many gallons you filled. God does not consider litres acceptable and are therefore an abomination.
The next trips to the station do not have to be complete fill ups. Just record your odometer reading and number of gallons.
Do this for a period of a month. If your FJ is parked for a month, do it on another month. Approx 1000 miles is good.
Subtract beginning odometer reading from ending odom. reading.
Add up all gallons used.
Divide miles by gallons.
This is your God Given Mileage. You are free to then post this as fact.
ps this is in writing on the internets so it is complete and utter fact.

Re: How to accurately calculate your MPG's, by God
Ummmmmmm, this is Satan , while the the mortals are indulging in the FJ, like the tribes of sodom and gomorrah. I dont think many people are at 3k miles.
Satans FJ ~
