    Just returned from 3 weeks on Fraser. Did 645klm and used 133 lt - 20.6 lt per 100klm or 4.8 klm per lt.
    All but 40 klm on sand and most of it loose and dry and chopped up quite badly. Drive down from Indian Head to Eurong was good hard sand at low tide but rest including trips across island was slow 1st and 2nd high range work. Normal on road consumption is about 13 lt per 100klm
    At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)

    07 4.8 with extractors and 3" exhaust, full cage roof rack on 33"s always run on 98ron and pretty well always returns 19-20l/100. Seems to be something wrong with the loud pedal as it doesn't want to go slow.
    Did a recent run to Exmouth with a heavily laden tinny and boards on the roof and best was 16.6/100 (about 100km/h) and worst was 21.6/100 (about 130km/h with both air cons flat chat)

    1990 3L rb30 - I get 150-180kms out of a full tank (85L).. Surely this isn't normal fuel consumption?

    Between 47-56 lt per 100klm, i highly doubt that is correct.
