GT Godfather!
Just out of interest on the weekend I had a bit of a ride down the coast and decided to go the 'Long' way via Brown Mountain rather than the Clyde. Apart from the change being as good as a rest one advantage of this route is that between two fuel stops, one in CAnberra and one in Cooma the road distance is almost exactly 100Km, in fact its 100Km and 300metres! This allowed me to do a fairly accurate assesment of the big G's fuel ecconomy. For the record Cooma is about 500 metres higher than Canberra so it was 'Uphill' but the weather was good, temp in the mid twenties and no wind to speak of.
According to the on-board calculator I was using 5.1 litres per hundred Km, according to the bowser I was using 4.9 Litres per hundred. Average it out and that's 20Km per litre. A huge improvement over the original 6.8 per hundred it started out with!!!!
Speed averaged at about 105KPH but most of the time I was sitting at about 120, the average being bought down by slowing down for little towns like Bredbo and Nimitabell. While nowhere near as ecconomical as my Mana which will run on the sniff of an oily rag I don't reckon its too shabby.
