Look after your car and it will look after you by not breaking down .
An article on Toyota mk2 , cresta, corsa etc would be really good . Most cars in uk are smaller and more basic than these so don’t feel they are ‘ cheaper ‘ , models , in Britain they would fall under the luxury bracket

People people people, mileage in this context is refering to the same mileage you are all refering to except here it refers to the km covered before you can have that vehicle of yours on the rocks because its no longer economical to keep on repairing.
TOYOTA means CAR 4 AFRICA. Ni zee bakamba. no complications like the others. Try putting ordinary diesel in your turbo charged & aircooled ISUZU ? You will have to pay 4 repairs with your pension. ati only cleaner diesel?? for the turbo charged & aircooled TOYOTA shown in the pic above nizee. nothing like cleaner diesel because This Is Africa (TIA).

“Mileage is the number of miles traveled over in a given time.The word mileage is often associated with cars and relates to the number of mile that have been covered or the total distance that that car has traveled in its life time. People say “this car has good mileage” meaning that is has not traveled very far and therefore would be in good condition.” NOW HOW DOES TEMPERATURE, SPEED AFFECT MILEAGE HERE? MILEAGE IS NOT THE SAME AS THE LIFE SPAN OF THE CAR. RIGHT-TIME CAR SERVICE PROLONGS DURABILITY.

Secondly what you meakt is ‘braking’ as from the work ‘brake’ and not breaking. Thirdly as others ahve pointed out again you miss-use the word ‘mileage’ in this article. Mileage is measured by the distance you travel and is indicated by the odometer. So none of the things you mentioned above will change the mileage in the context that you used it. You might maybe get more mileage per litre of petrol if you take care of your hilux.. get it!!

This is a poor article and I dare say on the wrong forum too. LT you are news, blogging site. There are peope better suited and qualified to do such an article. First of all as another blogger has pointed out, the tips above apply to all type of vehiclse and not just Toyota Hilux. So Im tempted to ask are you doing some advertising for Toyota or what.

okay remove “less breaking” above if that means skidding, since the mileage is calcualted from the wheel speed. but help me to understand the rest and breaking without speeding of course, pleaseeeee!
