Hey guys

Not sure on whether i want to finish my zook or buy a cheap 60 series at the moment. I can get a 60 series with 33's 2 inch lift and whinch bar for around $1500. 4L petrol.

Not sure on what would be cheaper so my question is. What kind of fuel economy do 60 series get on the highway and offroad?

I live in southside brisbane and am looking at going to glasshouse and belthorpe and maybe levuka so looking at around 2hr highway trips then a bit of 4wding and back again.

How much fuel would i be looking at going through?

Thanks
Brad

If fuel costs are your concern, dont buy a 60.

Ever tried the search feature?

If that dont work use google.com and enter your search terms and follow it with site:www.outerlimits4x4.com

i'd say that's an accurate range having 33's and doing alot of town driving will put your potential 60 in the upper end of that range.

13l is probably on 29's cruising at 90 for a full tank ;)

but hey you can always gas it!
