Hey Jon. I just got a 93 T100 3.0, Automatic 4WD. I'm getting about 17mpg. My truck now sports 152,000 (ish). She runs pretty darn good.

I tracked a full tank of gas last summer. With a combination of highway driving, city driving, and dirt road driving in 4-wheel drive I got 19 mpg on 85 octane gas. My T100 is a 1996.

If it's a FWD and you operate it most of the time in two-wheel drive mode, you'll average around 17-19 MPG throughout the truck's life. Mine's a 95 SR-5 3.4 liter automatic, etc. I bought it new and just threw a connecting rod bearing after 200,100 miles.

Here's what I know about this truck:

The recall they issued years ago about head gaskets on some models - no joke, I blew a head gasket at 124,000 miles. Cost me a BUNDLE to fix at a dealer.

Gas mileage will go as high as - believe it or not - 24 MPG for a short while if you replace the front axle boots, repack the wheel bearings and put a fresh oil change on her. MPGs will fall back to 19 once the truck regains its sense of self...

And speaking of Four Wheel Drive... be sure to engage that FWD mode about once a month for a few minutes at least. This helps ensure those transfer case components stay happy and lubricated.

I got to agree with you on the recall part for the head gaskets cause mines a 93 SR5 and i have 146,000 miles on it and about 2 weeks ago mine started to leak still is leaking cause haven't had time to fix it yet or the money so got to keep checking my oil weekly till i find money and time.
