Interesting, I get town/highway numbers in the same sort of range.
But that's with a 6L L76 and matching 6sp auto.

He once towed a 6x8 trailer and still got similar fuel figures. I reckon trailer was about 500kg or so.
My D2 with steel roofrack, front and rear bars is getting 16-17L/100km on the highway, but more like 19 around town/home (in the hills). Doesn't seem to change much once I hook the camper trailer up.
around 130l usable..Quote:

I can remember Rovercare towing a car trailer back from NSW with a RRC on it and his modded Isuzu 120 (or was it a RRC with modded Isuzu?) fuel consumption went from 11 l/100 to 13.

might have been just a headwind... [bigwhistle]
16.5/100k and above for mine. 250k on the clock. 265/75/16 tyres.
Almost identical to mine. I run the same size tyres and only a handful more kays on the clock. Awesome, cheers mateQuote:
