It's dipped as low as 0.9L/100km, but its my work car so I drive 120+ km daily(50/50 hwy/street) so it destroys the fuel economy. Also, driving it in the winter means that the battery holds less of a charge, and using the car heater destroys more battery life. During the summer, I can get 60-70 km per charge, during winter, I'd be lucky to get 40 km.

Dont have the the actual numbers but my work truck ( 2008 ram with flex fuel. ) gets around 20l/100km.
$100 bucks fills half a tank and we get around 300-350km out of it.

1500 2 door 8ft box.
Constantly weighing around 6000lb ( rack and tools + truck) more often weighing around 7000lb.
08 bought in early 09 with 250000 ish km.
It's the $140 full up for you that kills me. My truck takes almost double that.
If I work at st clair and ave rd for a day ( and no where else) from empty it's 60 bucks there and back. ( about 120km)
I really should try and get the fuely report on that. Just hard to be accurate.

Work truck is 2009 GMC digger Derrick hydro truck. I think it's a 7.2l diesel. I pull hydro poles around all day weighing on average 500lbs each. Don't know the mileage but it can't be good!!

I see.
We're paid by the job ( company owners, time is money) so there is ALOT of rushing around as well.

Used to drive a 2010 f350 full cab extended box with a full crew, 25 ft trailer towing 2 1.5 ton lawn mowers. Er' day all day.
400km meant you were babying it.

I got a 2010 Ford Ranger work truck and I get around 400-500 a tank (about $60-$70 per fill up) depending if 4x4 is turned on or not. Not too bad but, I don't pay for it and gas here is cheapo! :chuckle

OH YA.
My last car.
86 olds cutlas supreme braugham.
$60-70 fill and got 300km out of a tank.
All orginal. 65000km the day I bought it. Still had the original tires, brakes ect. EVEN PASSED SAFETY without touching it.
The reason why I bought my 3 was my savings on gas paid for the payment AND insurance increase.
BTW.
Anyone looking to buy a classic. A little beat up now. ( dont ever loan a car to your sister for an extended period of time. )
Lol.

I always drive spirited. At least in that car. Lol.
Believe it or not. The tires lasted me all summer. About 4 months total before I bought new ones. ( winters)

and yes it gets farily bad mileage.... consumes just as much as a minivan and takes premimum gas.... $100 to fill up :/
... but the low rumble from the exhaust is worth it :D
