Fuel Economy - What do you get out of a tank? (3rd gens only)

[ando94]

2003 TJ VR-X, currently getting around 8.5 litres per hundred. 600+km a tank every time.
Could go lower but I have a lead foot.
When my dad borrowed it the other day he got the average down to 7.2 litres a hundred (even doing the speed limit and not babying it that much.)

Just goes to show if you drive a car a certain way, the fuel economy can be fantastic.
Extremely impressed with such a large car to get such good economy.

wtf really? Is that on gas or petrol!?
On 91 unleaded I get 10.9 if I grandpa mine, in medium to heavy traffic. I tend to give it bursts every now and then though so about 11.5 average I'd say. It's on 11.3 at the moment for this tank.

Petrol..
Couldn't imagine how low it would go on gas .

I run premium in my car though, could make a difference?
Plus I have the K&N air filter (not a pod).
I dunno, its very good on fuel, Ill give it that!

Its because people need to understand the computer learns the way you drive.
Therefor if you drive it hard, its going to use more fuel. .
If you dont boot it all the time, you will get good fuel economy.
My brothers magna dad had that down to 6.9.
its possible.

Actually, It would be higher... Its the price of LPG which makes it attractive...

This is no longer the case, it's now about 12 in the traffic I refer to there. I'm now taking a different daily route which is more fuel efficient and get about spot on 11.
