Yeah, the Foz has 20cm clearance, equiv. of a Prado. And that class of vehicle is what determines the rut dimensions.
I can dig out the fuel figures (and did all the calcs before going) but you can fill up at Mungerannie and then again at
Birdsville. This isn't a Tk that needs a jerry with fuel for a topup unless conditions are atrocious and then the road is normally closed.
We run our AT light truck tyres at about 30% lower than the placarded figure which was a number recommended by outback locals. Have done 3 trips in that area without embarrassment! But do take two spare tyres; it's like insurance.
Good luck with the trip; it's a great part of the country, and
Birdsville has lots to offer too.
