So i finally did a run with mine for the first time ever and recorded its usage between fill ups. Around town i got 15.4Ltrs per 100 clicks.
So thats a GUII, td42, 160rwkw, 4.11's, manual, ARB bar, winch, steps, roof rack and rear draws.

Did a 4600km round trip to the sunny coast, Stradbroke Island with 150km of sand driving.
Over Christmas.
Fuel usage was 560lt, cost of $620
Average if calculated correctly was 12.7 per 100
Best between fills was 10.8 per 100, then 11.6 per 100 on the open roads sitting on 110km.
Very happy with this.
Average in start stop to work is 14 per 100 and up to 16 per 100 in very tight traffic.

Hadn't really thought about if it was good or not to be honest. To be honest again. Lol. I really dont care what the consumption is. It could be 20L per 100 and i wouldnt care. Lol.
But its good to know for organising trips i suppose.
I did record the trip up the coast dragging the camper at warp speed, lol. But you think i can find where i wrote it?
