Could anyone give me some sort of advice as to how much gas these things go through? City and Country. It would be a daily driver with the obligatory 2 to 3 times a year trip.
Thanks

MM me and give me your email address, I have all the figures a trip we did to NQ in 2000 in an 80 with gas and towing a CT.

It is in Excel format and might help.

My 93 Landcruiser is an auto and I'm running 285/75/16 BFG M/T's and driving around Melbourne I get around 30l / 100km on LPG. I haven't had chance to take it for a good country run since I got the LPG fitted but I reckon I'd be looking at around 24l /100km. The auto is thirstier than the manual and with a lift and bigger mud tyres, the usage goes up again.

Great economy for the power
