    With my 'baby' 255/85/16's(Ash), Turbo intercooled and LT95 with .996:1 High range, I get easily 12l/100 mix of highway and town. I have got down to 11l/100, but that is only if I sit under 100km'hr.

    The towing of our Campertrailer and a full load/fuel etc adds very little to the consumption, usually goes to 13l/100 but If I sit around 90km/h it is about the same as unladen

    I have no Roofrack...YET

    I guess the more streemlined Rangie body helps, But I am turning 35's and am 6" higher than standard. I am also N/A with an LT85
    ****ed if I know how, I can;t beat 14/100 out of my N/A 120" and a shade under 12 in my RR


    Either way, I'm still at those figures

    What's your gearing and what speed do you drive?

    4.1's in the diffs (Landcruiser). Rangie Transfer.

    Normally on a trip 105k in the 100 and 115k in the 110.

    I will do Sydney-Hervey Bay-Brisbane on less than a tank (130l) towing a box trailer.

    I'm running 1.003:1 transfer, 0.78 5th gear and 29" tyres.
    Here you get taxed if you drive faster than 100.

    Nothing better than passing family cars going uphill though.

    Hey Mate!

    No, still the same setup as when you last saw it, but just recently changed High range to .996:1. What a difference! The best thing you can do to these engines is keep gearing them up up up and push more fuel and boost into them

    So, as soon as you have a decent engine and a strong enough gearbag we will begin...

    Hi to both of you, from all of us!

    I know this is an old post, but I just got home from a 2600km trip, mostly highway, bit off bush tracks and bit of beach, and constantly average 10.5-10.8L/100km.

    I thought that was pretty good for a 25yr old truck with a 4 speed box. And I wasn't going easy on it, sitting on 110 most of the time on the highways, sometimes up to 115 (she doesn't like going that quick though! - I was trying to keep up with a mate in his V6 rodeo).

    Around town I usually average about 11-11.5l/100.

    Seeing as though this thread has re-surfaced, thought I should add my bit too. Did a similar trip to cheyne_r over christmas - about 2500kms, mainly highway, but with some dirt and hilly stuff, sitting on the speed limit all the time (except on the hills - no turbo), air-con on for most of it, and averaged 9.8l/100kms. Am however running the 5 speed, but was still surprised that the mileage was so good even when pushing the truck pretty hard (have to do 120 on the clock to actually be going at 110km/h)
    Probably only use another 1l/100 around town too.
