    Lets do some sums

    Say 20 Litres Gas per 100 K's @ 65c = $13

    Say 10 Litres Diesel per 100 K's @ $1.50 = $15
    My diesel is using 3-6 litre/100 more that that depending what I'm doing and what tyres, so yours is way more economical.
    Just don't know how to get that gas stuff in a gerry can though

    I was being generous with the Fuel consumption .

    It is surprising that on Gas a 4.5L is more economical

    Petrol Consumption is 16 Litres per 100 K's

    Except the CV joints - which are stronger on GU, and the turning circle - which is tighter on GU, and the track - which is wider on GU............

    Doesn't matter which one......
    Had a Tojo before, crossed over and all the Patrol boy's welcomed me into the light, they didn't care what it was as long as it was a Nissan.
    Here is a shot at Stockton, stopped quick on a dune top as it looked steeper than I thought and down she went, that red thing could not get in front of me fast enough to snatch me downhill. Bless him the Mongrel. The Nissan boys are great but those other fella's like to inflict pain and agony.
