Do the math. You won’t get that much better in a 4 runner. I had a 2024 trd pro and traded it for the LC. Very little difference in the frequency of filling up.Just did my first road trip and I pretty much agree with the OP. Lost of road noise though I had a canoe on the roof making it worse.
The tiny fuel tank kills me though and will need to carry a gas can on backcountry trips (even has me slightly considering replacing it with a 4R).
