Hi All,

I just thought i ought to share this positive information with you guys.

The missus and i and a couple of mates drove to dubbo over the weekend.

After the miserable wet winding roads through Lithgow, we reached a straight sunny blue skies stretch through to dubbo.

5 or so hours later we were at Dubbo (with a few stop overs in between and on cruise control pretty much the whole way) My 07 CRV clocked in on the trip meter 8.5L / 100km.

Leaving sydney with a full tank, Not once i needed to fuel up! i was laughing!! with plenty to spare (fuel guage only half with a 300km range to go) to drive in and around Dubbo.

Whilst my other mate with a small Hyundai Accent (which apparently is the fuel efficient cars) had to fuel up half way to dubbo and fuel up again at Dubbo.

All in all I only had to full tank again before leaving back to Sydney and the mate with the Hyundai had to top up another 4 times in total before reaching sydney.

Gotta love my car.

I am aiming one day i get 7.5 or 7.0L/100km! well, one day! if i find the most straight road in NSW.

cheers
Z
