I am doing some final prep work on my Prado for the trip in July but have been given some bad news by our trip leader that Eyre Creek my still be too high to cross when we get there in 3 weeks.

"If we are unable to cross which may be a reality we have to face, the only way to exit the Desert is the same way we came in via the Hay River."

"Kilometres is approx 1100 kms to get back to Batton Hill/Jervois Stn to refuel"

So my question to those that have done this trip in a 120 or 150 V6 Prado.

What is the average fuel consumption for this trip ?

The car has 150L and I plan to take 80L in Jerry cans, working on 5km / L (20L/100) ?

Any suggestions ?

Regards

Derek
