Accuracy of MPG on Trip computerpoppabear 02-25-2004, 01:37 PM Hi, I just got a 2004 SR5 V6. I have only filled it 5 times, but I notice that the trip computer has a high reading for the miles per gallon. I reset it each time I fill up and check the mpg by gallons put in divided by miles since last fillup. My display shows around 20 mpg and I am actually getting a little less than 19. Is this normal? Brian R. 02-25-2004, 03:33 PM Yes, it is well known that the trip odometer lies. Use the vehicle odometer for estimating gas mileage, or better yet, use mileage markers on the highway.
