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:

Mate on here in his FG Turbo got from Sydney to Robina in one tank with still another 100km or so left in the tank... that's 850km for those playing at home.

Mine gets really good figures on long trips down the highway. Around the city though it isn't so good.

Range when I fill up is around 440

Do that's a combined usage of around 15.5l/100km?

Have not noticed any changes with tuning yet but we haven't really done anything to the car yet either.

2010 G6ET (stock), Brissy to Melbourne return (5000k), best was 8.2L/100k. worst was 10.6L/100k. Overall average was 9.2L/100k for the entire trip. These figures are based on the actual fuel that was used and not the readout from the tripmeter/computer. I'd say that was probably doing 15% city/85% highway. Not too shabby for a vehicle this size and I did put my foot into it whenever passing (love the sound of that turbo). I have no complaints with those fuel figures. The only thing that hurt was having to pay $1.65L for 98 octane. OUCH!

My fg f6 sits on around 12.4 mixed style of driving around town and between 9.4 and 10.5 highway driving. I have only ever run it on bp ultimate.

Mine uses 9-10l 100km on long trips... 14l on mixed trips... And about 17 when giving it a few squirts...

With 250rwkw +++++ on LPG @ 50c per litre...

Best I have had my average down to is 11.5L from highway driving with some little squirts on back streets.. its sitting on 12.1L now as I haven't been on the highway a heap in the last month or two. Always see instant fuel around 9-10.5L when cruising on highway off boost

Before it was modded and tuned the instant figures never got below 10.6-10.8's
