Hi all, Mate wants to know if 13L per 100 on freeway cycle, 15L per 100 city cycle, and 17/18L per 100 towing van sound ok. These figures are for a 3.4L Toyota prado automatic 99 model. They sound pretty good to me but he thinks is a bit thirsty for the around town figures but told him I would ask the professionals that own them on here. regards Steve M

Stephen,
I've got an 2003 auto with 4.0 litre motor. The computer tells me the average round town is 14.0 l/100km. So your numbers are about right.
Drops to the low 13's on a trip and maybe high 12's if your very careful and go on very looonnnggg drives.
The towing sounds right as
well. Although I've only just got my
Kimberley Karavan and haven't done any great distance. It's about 2000kg loaded so I'm expecting the types of numbers you've quoted.
Cheers
Garth
