Just thought i'd post some figures from the coral bay weekend......the patrol returned 16.37 l per 100km this weekend, including 1000km round trip and 200km of beach driving, with tyre at 9psi (soft white stuff).

Hi Wayne, I have a 2004 Patrol ute and I've got a couple of things if you don't mind me asking? What speed were you sitting on on the highway and how much load did you have?
thanks, Wayne

hey mate, was sitting around 110/115 kmph and truck weighs 3t loaded pushing 285/75R16......she is due for 80,000 service, so fuel is slightly high, hope to see around 15 lper 100km after major service. also i live in the pilbara so fuel usage is slightly higher due to heat. what figures do you usually get mate?

Thanks for that.
We averaged around 17.5 litres 100ks towing a campertrailer NT/Norwest. I had Freo Injection give it a bit of a tweak when I got home but haven't really done enough driving to get some usable figures yet. Without the trailer on I was some where around 15lp100ks but this went up to arond 16 when I put the 285s on.
Cheers, Wayne
