FWIW, the Tundra gets worse gas mileage than many 3/4 ton trucks. If you're going to be using the truck as a daily driver after your trip, you may wish to consider the fact that a Silverado/Sierra or F150 will get 21+mpg day in and day out, unloaded, and you will have a payload capacity over 2,000 lbs with an extended cab.
You have no clue what you're talking about. My brother-in-law drives, and tows with, a 2011, 5.0, F150, and I drive a Tundra. We talk about mpg all the time, and he is no where close to 21 mpg.
And I had a Silverado with the Cylinder Deactivation/Oil Burning option and never got close to 21, either. In day-to-day driving, my Tundra gets the same MPG as my Silverado did with more power and less problems.
