    Albury to SE melb and back at 105km/h. Filled it at Euroa, 13.1L/100km.
    Euroa to Albury at 115km/h and topped it up again 13.4L/100km.
    I thought it was worse but realised my odo isn't counting correctly because of the tyres so I'm pretty happy with it!
    Pretty good figures would love that sort of economy out of mine , never took into account the tyre size changing the odometer, for some reason thought it only affected speedo.
    Might have to use the gps for a accurate reading .

    The guy, just bought a new Y61 from Emirates.

    Efficiency decal on his brand new, Y61, Mt 7, TB48, 4 doors.
    Consumption - 7.4 km/L (13.5 L/100 km.)
    Efficiency rating - Very Poor.

    How did they make 13.5 L? Unless in vacuum camera with 0 windage.

    PS. The QR is also available for info.

    Wish i got 13.5 anywhere close out of my TB48
    Pretty sure the original fuel consumption listing for them was just written as LOTS and not as a number

    GQ TB42c, managed 20.01l/100 on a 3900km round thrip adelaide/birdsville,flinders. Fully loaded and with 800kg camper trailer, lifted and on 33s. 30% highway, 60% dirt, 10% fun, I thought that was pretty reasonable.

    GU Y62 Series 4... 1500 K's, 25% Busy Freeway, 70% Urban, 5% Prado... 12.6 LPH
    Stock plus roof racks, smart Alternator given a lobotomy, minimal load, 1 to 3 adults.

    "Prado" = On sighting one the pedal and the metal to have a meeting of the minds... would be low 12's otherwise.

    Should stay under 13 with 35's but will depend on the Prado %.
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Yeah... typical normally aspirated big displacement Petty... tool around the place and they are suprisingly good... open 'em up or tow and they drink a heap.
