may have to revisit that and up size.
on a 45 degree day the air coming out of the vents was 14 degrees.

done about 1000km.
fuel economy with spirited town driving comes in at 16lph.
country driving is about 12lph, limited by gear ratio
things i can do to get better economy,
- dont drive so fast
- reduce tyre size
- reduce tyre width
gearing. as im still using the LR 5speed R380 one of the inefficiency is the gearing, no 6th gear being the main disadvantage.
yes i test it over the weekend. works as normalQuote:

So id say your economy is pretty spot on , I dont think you would get a great deal better out of it.
the ute is a lot lighter and aerodynamic. ive got that fuel economy down to 8lphQuote:

i'll have to get my passenger to record the rpm n speeds as i keep forgetting.
Thats better than a patrol , landlooser or petrol D1/D2 with power to boot.
I typically get under 16l per 100k in my D2 4.6 manual and better than 12l on highway run...
Cheers

or maybe i just need to drive slower...[bigrolf]
