Sounds quite reasonable to me. Petrol or Deisel?

Hmmm may be a little high depending on if your carrying a load or not.  I
get 10l/100km from my V6 4runner on the highway but it drops to 14 when
loaded or lots of short runs.

I'd say you would be wrapt with 12/100 in 1hz troopy!

Dunno, for an unladen Deisel I'd have expected a little better.

He may have 35inch tyres or something. BUt for a stocker............

Check out EO, seems not as good as you hope.

what can you expect from a Nissan Owner Scotty

10-11L/100klm is about average for any of the 1Hz cruisers when driven
sedately at 90-100kph with AC on
but go over 100 to 110 and you can drop it to around 12L/100klm

of course putting things like 33inch mud tyres will see that figure blow
out to 14L/100

friend got 8L/100klm on a return trim from Brisbane to Wagga in his 2006
100 turbo diesel auto
his father fared a little worse two months earlier at around 12L/100 in
his 2005 100 V8 Auto but he probably say on 90klms all the way

Of course the Patrols get no better
and the cruisers are around 2.5 tonnes

yea, thats like listening to Robin who says his 4.8petrol GU gets
13/100 too...  Driving sedately, which is not what normal people do
day to day.

I get 16l/100k out of my 4L Wranler which is normal for them, less in the
scrub - but the fun factor is the thing I reckon.
