Highest mileage J250

[LC_DFW]

7000 miles with oil change only at 5K. Purchased late July.

Coming up on 10k. Changed oil at 1k, 3k, 6k, and a week or 2 at 10k. I'll probably go every 4-5k from here on out.

Love the vehicle, besides the fuel tank size. Seriously considering buying something else just due to the range. I feel betrayed by Toyota. How am I supposed to "cruise the land" with 300 miles :-/

Sorry for the rant.

I am coming from a 202 ram 1500 rebel that had a 26 gal tank and I got about 12 MPG. on the LC I am getting about 17 mpg purely city, hardly ever trips over 5 miles. this gives me almost the exact same range as my truck did with big fuel tank. and before that I had a 2014 jeep Cherokee that would get about 300 miles on a tank too. This is my first Toyota ever but as I understand it, the LC 200 had a 24.6 gal tank and I probably would've gotten about 11 or 12 mpg putting me under 300 miles of range. I have never had a car that got 400 or even 350 miles on a tank and am totally fine with the range. The GX would've been the worst of the bunch for me at about 250 miles of range (~12 mpg based on test drive) and just a non starter especially with premium gas. just my opinion.
