    Is there a Toyota supported horsepower computer chip yet or other chip options?

    Check caraid or others. There are a bunch on the market. I wouldn't put one on my truck I think they do more harm than good but to each their own.

    Not likely. 276, or whatever, is very good horsepower for a small (3.5l) truck engine. Sure, you could recam and rev it up higher, but why?? If the transmission didn't suck, and a lower set of gears were installed, the truck would raise the gun factor a little though.

    Well, one dude on here says he has one, but I think it's a sham. But I got banned because I called him out. Up to you to decide. Good luck!

    I'm getting 17 right now. I don't do enough city driving to know, but I also do too much to say I have a good highway estimate either. I have had trips where I get 19ish.1 That being said, my '17 is pre-owned, had 40k. Based on the carfax the guy was getting monthly service checks, lol.

    You could do a lot to improve mileage exhaust cold air intake throttle body spacer etc etc. but the hardly noticeable gain wouldn't recoup the cost of the product for a long time.

    When I worked for coca cola I was putting 40,000 plus a year lol , I know this truck learns your driving style , try disconnecting the battery overnight to let the computer reset and see if that helps you out I've read in other post it worked for other members
