Thanks guys..

Any tips on what to say to ford about it this time?

well, first you need to find if there is a problem..

what model is it? manual or auto? sedan or ute?

hold a steady speed on a flat road and tell us what the instant economy says..

at 100km/h on the flat freeway mine is getting between 5 - 9 l/100 km.

I have an FG XR6Turbo Sedan, Manual.

Its a manual ute mate..

Mine is getting around 7-10 litres/100k's

You need to put an air/fuel ratio meter in the exhaust to see what the engine is doing under cruise and acceleration. If its going into closed loop and reading around 14.7:1 then all is normal and it may be your driving. If not then a good tuner can sometimes help.

On my 3rd tank of gas, currently getting low 11's/100, just under 600 per tank. Also did about 100kms at a steady 100kph and averaged 8.8, fantastic.

So far pretty stoked with the economy and from wot I hear it should only get better...........right foot permitting.

Congrats mate its a shame I have no idea as to why mine is so bloody high..

Typo?

No, that's my instant economy

Well stop driving like an idiot at other times and your consumption will come down!

That is putting it bluntly Tabby

Pel are you doing short trips or long drives ?

If I go on the freeway, I will see 10lt/100km, but my short trips and driving style means I always see 19lt>/100km

The GT-E gets the same economy as my F6 and TTG due to my right foot and short trips.
