    Recently got the average fuel consumption of our '06 ex Telstra 4.2 Patrol, weighing in at close to it's uprated GVM of 3.9t, plus pulling our Tvan 95% of the time, (all towing in 4th or below). All up weight of around 5 to 5.1tonnes reducing as we used up supplies - say an average of around 5 tonnes & wearing 265/75R16 tyres, over the past five years in our jaunt up to the top end & back & a light right foot. Lots of off road in including some long distances in low ratio. Used the Fuel Map app. A few minor stuff ups with entries, but I think the average consumption we have is correct - it has been consistent all along. 15.82 litres per 100.
    Lowest 11.99litres per 100 (driving very slow on sealed road to see how low we could get consumption between Katherine & Mataranka).
    Highest 20.42 Litres per 100km (Including about 450kms in low ratio on the Munja Track).

    2006 4.2TDi ex-Telstra Remote area Camper.
    Patrol Sold after 11 years of ownership Replaced with 2006 OKA NT Expedition Truck. Cummins, Allison & lots of goodies
