2.8 GU fuel economy?

[scottyb]

Hey guys, just wondering what kind of fuel consumption every ones getting? Persifically the 2.8's. I'm running 33's, 2 inch lift, bull bar with wintch. Checked today and came back with a fairly decent 13 per 100. But that's with no 4x4ing and taking it fairly easy around town. Cheers

I'm being a smart arse because it's in my nature to be that way, so I've corrected it for you :Yahoo!:


Sometimes stuff just gets missed when reading. I know because I do it often.

But it answer to your question........... no idea because I don't have one, just a mighty TD42 GQ :toot:

onya Clunky - about as helpful as a bucket load of snails mate

I cannot help either as I have a GU TD42

I have heard some are getting around the 11-13/100 depending on the driving style

well a bucket load of snails could be helpful if you were French, or someone who liked Escargot

Of course you can Winnie......

So Col, Bbq sauce hey, interesting concept, what about Tomato sauce?

[Bigcol]

nah, I hate Tomato Sauce

Worcestershire sauce is another that helps the taste a bit

even a dash of HP will help
