CreeperSleeper Looking for bigger rocks. Nov 4, 2014 #2 ****ty. My old 80 and my 100 get about 13mpg.
Willman Active member Nov 4, 2014 #3 This should be a good thread. Here's my 2 cents on the 100.... 100 series are in the 14-15 mpg range stock....But depends what's going on...Pulling a trailer, tire size etc...

L LandCruiserPhil Expedition Leader Nov 4, 2014 #4 Own both and the 100 series will get about 2 more MPG then the 80 given the same circumstance.
CreeperSleeper Looking for bigger rocks. Nov 4, 2014 #5 Seriously?!? I swear I am the only person that got better mpg's in his 80 than his 100... It might be my driving style and the sound of that 4.7. LOL

Rezarf <>< Explorer Nov 4, 2014 #8 98-99 100 series have a different transmission than the later years netting a couple more mpg over the 98-99's My 1999 gets 14-17mpg depending mostly on highway verses in-town. 15mpg is pretty normal and I'm bone stock.

I believe I also got better fuel economy out of my 5-speed 2005 LX than the 4-speed 2000, something a bit over a mile a gallon.

O OregonLC Observer Nov 4, 2014 #11 I got 20+ bringing the 2004 LX home from Reno, but that was that rare 100% highway event. It's good for a real world 17-19 depending on road and speed. My built 2000 gets about 14 on the road and 10 on the trail.

My 80 gets 10mpg in city traffic. 12mpg in city with no traffic. 14-16mpg freeway. On 35s with stock gearing. Fairly light as far as mods go.

J jhanley Observer Nov 5, 2014 #14 What's the point of this exercise? I own both, and, both get absolutely unacceptable fuel economy. My 80 averages 13, so does my 100. That being said, I wouldn't own anything else!

Mike S Sponsor - AutoHomeUSA Nov 5, 2014 #15 My 80 series gets 11-13 MPG, my 100 series gets 15-18 MPG. Like the 100 series better on the road, like the 80 better off-road.
