Just filled mine up. Didn't look how much. When it's empty I put fuel in. That said the trip says I'm getting 29mpg...... Which is better than swmbos car.... There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

The best way to get better gas mileage is simple. As soon as you find a good hill to coast down reset the consumption computer. I've gotten over 37 MPG. At the bottom of the hill look at something else. If feels so good to be in such a heavy powerful capable vehicle that can get nearly 40 mpgs!

I have to say, the consumption doesn’t really bother me as much as the range! Mine if doing a LONG trip will easily top 650 miles between fill ups! Thats at high motorway speeds! Whistle

Thats my importance Geoff Thumbs Up

What version gives you 600 miles on a tank full Shocked Shocked

I reckon if I drive like Miss Daisy I could get towards the 400 mark but 600 - no way. Then again, if I fill up, drive home and then back to the filling station it costs me over £12 at todays prices.

On a france run I reckon I would get about 450-490 out of the 3.6, given that the indicated average was 25ish and at the moment I seem to get 32 out of the 4.4 on a run then an extra few miles would seem possible! There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I had a 3.6 with a Blufin remap and 600 miles plus after a fill up with dirty diesel. Lucky to get 400 now with petrol and a 5.0L Supercharged - driving within speed limits at all times, acceleration is a different matter Shocked Geoff
