    OK all you 110 diesel drivers out there. What fuel usage /100k do you get out of your pride and joy?

    From 10.5 to 12l/100km, the variation mainly due to inaccurate filling to full apparently, but towards the higher figure when travelling consistently over 120kph or towing a heavy trailer at high speed. Figures from accurate fuel records over 340,000km.

    I was getting 11-12/100 till recently, then replaced a dribbling fuel pump and got 10.5/100 on a 2000km trip. I'll be due to refill again next week, so I'll get a better idea of town driving economy.

    What sort of consumption is possible from the 3.9 Isuzu diesel motor?

    See my post above. Driven very carefully and slowly, with everything in your favour you might make just under ten, but I believe all the figures I have as low as this are due to not filling the tanks right up because of slope on the forecourt etc.

    10 l/100k is achievable from the 3.9 but the book says expect 15l/100k.

    The armys basic planning range for all 4x4 varients, lightly laden (1/2 max cargo weight including driver/pax) and not towing trailers is

    road 500km (black top)
    off road 300km (formed tracks/arduous topography)
    cross country 200km (roads, we dont need no stinking roads)

    from 65l of useable dieso

    add 100/60/30 km for the 20l jerry.

    This also assumes responsably operated vehicles. Ive personally had one of them get less than 1l/1km and no it wasnt broken, it was working, very, very very hard.
