Have you checked the trek fuel listing in the trek notes - this data is averaged from all users who submitted data for this trek. Have a look at the trekfuel on the Canning Stock Route trek.

Janck gidday I am leaving home Kalgoorlie on the 19th of July for the Canning Stock Route , info you have recieved on fuel consumption wouuld have to be reviewed you will need alot more than the emails you have recieved to date suggest,the vehicle you have is more than adequate but in the bush you have to drive to conditions and they can change at any moment ,which could consume more fuel than you expect,if you require more info or would like to join me when I start the Canning Stock Route you are more than welcome to tag along .
Regards Richard
