Welcome to the site. If you are getting low 30's you are doing better then most are.

That's good, unless they're diesel. If diesel, it's on the low end of the normal range.

Edit: Waitaminute! At that speed, 33 is pretty decent, even for the diesels. And if they're 4wd, it's amazing.

I have a 78 and an 80. Both have new engines and both get about 19 - 23 mixed local and highway. The 5 speed must help a bunch.

I have a 1980 4x4 that always gets between 25-27 mpg. It's not the best lookin Luv, but I wouldn't trade it for a bran new toyota.
