Sounds a little on the high side, worse if you're talking long wheelbase model - they have a 92 litre tank vs 75 litre in the shorty.

LWB, on the highway, around 100km/h, without roofracks or trailer - I'd expect closer to 700km to dead empty. Shorty under those conditions, 500km would be about right.

When you fill, how much does it take? Some people fill at 1/4 on the gauge, others wait for the light. My mother won't go below 1/3 on her gauge - doesn't want to "suck the sediment from the bottom of the tank." :roll: She doesn't listen... :lol:
