On the highway it can be pushed and nursed to 350k a tank.
But what do you expect with a loose stall(3000rpm) 3.9 gears and the thing weighing in at 1700kg.

Yeah ... but I know how you drive ... the accelerator pedal in your's is an on/off switch ... if it's not flat to the boards ... you aren't driving .... LOL.

It depends on a number of things with me.

In the ute:
Loaded up/heavy traffic = 20L/100km (400km from 80L)
Outer metro with a bit of a push here and there = 16L/100km (500km from about 80L)
Highway cruising = about 12L/100km (700km from 85L)

This is in the work ute .. factory LPG ... with about 250,000km on the clock.

The Territory on the otherhand sits on 13.4L/100km for outer metro ... and I think that's with an average of about 45km/h.
This is in a 2.1-2.2 tonne vehicle ... AWD ... and 4-speed auto.

When towing close to the maximum towing capacity it drinks around 20L/100km ... but that's driving gently in the process as well.

Well ... I still don't think the stroker is in there yet (although Goodness knows what Brett is up to with the car) ... although there's the plates and decals on it ... but it has a nice set of Sportsman heads on there.

At the moment ... the diff had to come out ... cos it had a smashed axle jammed in the side of the spool ... the other axle was twisted as well ... and he didn't even make it to the track.

just going to throw the idea out there. it might be telling the ecu its rich and be leaning the motor out slightly? chuck one in and let us know how it goes.
