    Almost 200km more for what reason? this makes no sense to me.. I can see a small difference of maybe 50km.. but that much? :confused::confused:
    Driving downhill both ways all the time never exceeding 70km/h? :p

    LOL ! nope I work in the country so mostly doing 80-90 km/hr ... I just filled yesterday : 640 km and I put 65 l in.

    Tires are the original 265-70-16 if I remember right. 16'' SR5 tires

    No mods, I had a tonneau cover on but I saw no difference. I'm trying to sell it and buy a cap to put the dogs in.

    I have 11 000 km on the truck, running 5W30 Syntec and unleaded gas.

    The guy at the dealer told me I could get better gas mileage with 0w30 but it's already pretty good.

    Do me a favour and actually check the tire size. I had smaller than original on mine and I was getting 650km/tank too.

    On summer gas I'm happy if I hit 500km when the light comes on.

    No problem. But yeah, those are a little smaller than than 265x70R16 that came stock on mine. :) I'm fairly certain that when I got my truck (Bought it second hand with 800kms on the odom) it had the same size as you on it. A plus is that with that tire size it is really easy to do burn outs. :p

    On my 2006 AC with 285/75/16's Im only getting about 375km before my light comes on, and that IS calculating the additional 7% or so with the bigger tires. Yikes.

    Tires are KM2's, Have a Canopy with an additional 150ish lbs in the bed.

    Those are highway KMs. Not very good :(

    Consistently hitting low 500s at the light, stock 2013 DCLB on 265/70/17 BFG ATs.

    Managed 570 earlier this week with about 70% gravel road @ 70km/h and 30% hwy at 100km/h (in the parks).

    Just hit 708 km at the light today. I was 1 km from the pump coming back from work so I filled her up and ended up putting 67.195 liters.

    I attached some pictures for you guys to see.

    On that tank I did 70 % highway and 30 % country roads.

    But I put my tonneau cover back on.
