FG F6, 100% city, floggin it 50% of the time I consistently get 300kms per tank. Does that still seem high usage?

The computer in Ts is not an accurate measure - mine also gives very favourable results. (our work Territory's are the same)

As I said, none of my mates can get 8s and they have done their own figures as their usage seemed higher than Ford claimed. But if you guys think you are getting 8s, and in fact if you actually are due to tuning or whatever, that's fine! :icon_ford:

Seeing as I finished primary school and I reset my trip meter every time I fill up, I find it pretty easy to figure out the economy without the computer.

You'd need to do about 800km in a sedan to get 8.5L/100km over the whole tank.

I got 8.1 liters on last fuel up, reset the computer, fueled up in town, straight on the highway to melb, 127kms later 8.1 was the result, 45mins of bumper to bumper near the zoo made it rise to 9.9

Stock FG xr6t ZF

my best so far is 7.8ltr I do a lot of country driving, roxby downs back to adelaide but as an average mid/high 8's. As far as k's out of a half a tank of 98 octane 415.3ks the balance of that tank was mid 600k's. F6 is stock.

Its white so maybe that's the reason hehehe

In the 6500 odd km's since my stocker rolled off the production line my average usage is sitting at 10.8 overall.

I'm doing 800kms per week on the m5/m7/m2 (AKA MQUEUE), regularly getting over 600kms from a tank.

Much better economy than my last GTR and the JZX100 it replaced with much more fun.

Heres a few pics of my F6 on the awesome :negative: WA freeway. Most of the time it sits around 8.5L to around 9.0L/100km

But obviously when I put the boot down those numbers go right out the window! Besides, I didn't buy it for the fuel economy, if you want good mileage..buy a prius!

Mine has done 50,000 k's with avg 11.1 on computer. 85% highway/m'way.

When I had it tuned recently the usage jumped up about 0.5 l/100 klm. This means the computer only averages the consumption over a predetermined recent window, not from the time the computer was zeroed.
