After having it 30 days so far I would have much preferred the bench.
I remember the first few fill ups showing that I could go roughly 380 miles on a full tank. Now when I fill up it says 285 miles on a full tank. That is only 10mpg......I commute to work about 25 miles each way and my trip computer says I'm averaging around 14.
Why does the range not match up with the avg fuel economy?
Has anyone else noticed this?

How are you measuring your range? One of the things you need to get used to is that the Sequoia shows E with 5-6 gallons still left in the tank. You probably have 80-100 miles still left in the tank when it reads Empty. Next time you fill up you'll see that it rarely takes much more than 20 gals when the guage first reads E.
Next time you fill up, subtract the amount of gals you buy from 26.4. Now take the difference and multiply the remaining gallons times the MPG on the trip computer...you just found your remaining fuel mileage range.
I guess it comes down to the computer re-calibrating itself based upon the driving style or average fuel economy.
Just wish I could get the posted 14 mpg it says I should get........not seeing it at all even driving conservatively.
I put some pictures up on Carspace. Have a look.
