(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!

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.

dre Resident idiot. Donating Members 2,068 Member For: 14y 9m 9d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 22/06/11 03:23 AM Share Posted 22/06/11 03:23 AM (edited) 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 440Do 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.

Turbonator Donating Members 108 Member For: 14y 6m 5d Gender: Male Posted 22/06/11 06:35 AM Share Posted 22/06/11 06:35 AM (edited) 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!
