[Davidson]

Greetings People,

Took a big trip out west and was a little concerned about my fuel consumption.

Can some of you lovely people out there is similar engines give me an example of your fuel consumption rates.

Thanks

a mate gets 300ks to a tank on 33s

I get about 15 MPG (USA).

I get about 300kms to 48 litres of LPG around town driving moderately with the occasional squirt.
I get about 350-370 on the highway less with head winds.

I haven't done a test on the petrol side but it's a 112lt. tank. I might get 600-700kms I'd reckon.

This is in a Rodeo dual cab though with a regular total of 2.2T, more when on a trip.

I amazed myself on a recent trip up the east coast of Tas. Drove up on new years day in the rain, and so was driving very sedately as roads were slippery with my half worn BFG mudders. Was sunny the next day and punted along the back roads and down the middle of the state again. After filling up I worked it out to be 425Ks off 55L approx 12.9l/100k
Best I've ever got.
The next week was a little less at 405K off 55L.

Average I'd guess is around 13.8-14.5/100k, driving about 20k each way to work.

That's good mileage for a 3.2 Timbo.

Going by your results I could get about 800kms from my 112lt tank but there are too many variables to be sure about that.

Hmmmm. 800 on petrol and 300-350 with LPG. that's a good range.

I usually get around 400km to 60 - 65 litres mixture of town and freeway driving with about 1/2 a ton of crap on the back
