2024 Land Cruiser
I bought a 1958 model Land Cruiser. Love it but i'm getting about 14.8 MPG. I added 33" tires and a front runner slimline 2 roof rack which i'm sure are affecting it a bit....but the best i got was 19.4 MPG on a 180 mile highway trip when it was brand new stock....anybody having this issue?
 
yes, this issue has been resolved. Please see this thread - I got 76.6 MPG with this weird trick.

And also these threads

.... and certainly more if you go past page 1 of a search for "mpg"
 
It will improve as it breaks in, but maybe by only 1 or 2 mpg though. I've experienced this and others in these forums saw that same. Your tires and that gear on your roof rack will definitely affect your performance.

I have A/T 275s and didn't quite hit 22 mpg on my last tank with about 3000 miles. I suspect I'd get 23 mpg if I'd kept my stock tires. This is with slow driving.
