Can any one tell me what is the best speed highway for fuel consumption in an 80 series std man deisel. In the city I get 11.4lt/100km (25mpg) but that doesnt get better on the hwy doing 100-120kph. I thought I would get aprox 30mpg (? l/100kms) in hwy cycle. On a recent trip to
shark bay 2300 kms (500kms in 4wd) I averaged 20 Mpg.

On travelling around 250 000km in two 80,s one part time & one full time 4x4. The more k's on the clock the better. The difference between them is sod all. Town v country 1mpg, part time v full time 1mpg.
I constantly get 1200km's between fills town or country, and weighing in at 2.8 tonne. For best in country is around 100 km/h. anything higher i've found used more.
