I've got about 7.5 in my 3RB, driving from Melbourne to Adelaide (before hitting the Adelaide Hills).

Is yours still running factory tune Ric? Either my tune runs a bit fat, or I need to get my foot out of it!


Also, I never drive in 'Intelligent' mode, but I'm not sure how much of a difference it would make given it's just a throttle program.

Yes, it's absolutely stock (and nearly 340,000 km, so well run in!)

Dunno. Didn't have gadgets like that in MY06.

FYI, it's much thirstier around town. Averages 11.8 for my daily commute to work.

My LGT has an average of 11.5 but it never does any city or peak our traffic. Mainly 80k zones.
