But she'll still go the first 400m from a standstill in 14 sec flat.:blush: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24040-full-tank-gets-you/#findComment-359514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee Member 29 Member For: 19y 2m 15d Posted 14/03/06 07:56 AM Share Posted 14/03/06 07:56 AM (edited) Around town 400km with sedate driving and the occassional squirt.But there's always about 10 litres of fuel left in the tank when I fill up, so the range would be a bit more than that.Dunno what the highway range is, but will be testing it soon Edited 14/03/06 07:58 AM by Tee Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24040-full-tank-gets-you/#findComment-359515 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 2m 23d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 14/03/06 09:12 AM Share Posted 14/03/06 09:12 AM It depends on what type of driver you are.I get under 350km per tank, but I am an On/Off driver. If you are the type that believes in getting to the speedlimit (or over) quickly everytime, then expect this type of fuel economy.There is NOTHING wrong with your cars, its your lead in your right shoe Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24040-full-tank-gets-you/#findComment-359538 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 14/03/06 09:21 AM Share Posted 14/03/06 09:21 AM Too and from work each day in light traffic but stop start because of traffic lights I get about 400km's with 80ish left on the distance to empty...Pretty happy about it... costs about $65-$70 odd to fill up, compared to my old Senator (5.7L factory stroker) that cost nearly $100 to fill and I'd get about 450km's to a tank...Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24040-full-tank-gets-you/#findComment-359540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
