i just got back from a 780km'ish trip with about 300kg of stuff in the back (mx bike, camping gear, etc)
i was cruising at fast to fast through the straights and corners and hit around FAST a few times on long downhills. at times i was doing 100 in 3rd on steep hills or long increasing gradients and over taking at fast on increasing gradients.
full tank of 75L and have around 1/4 left according to the gauge
GOOD STUFF

New figures after gas conversion
I can finally post some figures after a couple of months using the DGas and a 2 3/4' exhaust fitted at the beginning of February. I was goint to post my spreadsheet but suddenly .xls is not an acceptable attachment so, no Excel document.
Two tanks of diesel totalling 100.26L and one of gas 28.47L for a total fuel usage of 128.73L was used to cover 1,123.9Km which works out at 11.45L/100Km. This is very close to what the Nav was doing just on diesel prior to the upgrade so I am saving about $11-12 per gas tank full but the Nav goes like a cut snake now and pulls my van with no problems at all.
Most of my driving is local , but when I hit the highway I usually have my van on the back so I am very happy with the figures but it will take about 5 years to get my investment back

How much gas are you using on top of the diesel?

Well took my roof racks off the last time I filled up.
Must have looked like a wierdo taking them off at 2 in the morning at Cessnock but I was getting 11L per 100km's.
Took them off and now its back to 9.7L per 100km's.
I didn't think they would make that much of a difference but it shows they do.

2005 STR 3.0 Manual, Std, 50K, not had a hard life (YET!!)
Fuel consumtion pretty much like Dave_STR's although i don't use injector cleaner and the engine has had an easy life SO FAR!!

I don't know how you New South Welshies get by doing the speeds you do... I spent a bit of time on the New England around Singleton (one day job at Bayswater PS) this week and saw at least four separate coppers patrolling, two marked and at least two unmarked, in the space of less than maybe an hour total on the road.
Then for the rest of the day I spent in NSW doing 118km/h on the dial=111km/h in the real world, I was being passed by everyone like I was standing still (I'm one ticket away from no licence, so I can't afford to get pinged). Is it just that Vic penalties are harsher or what?
To stay on topic, I can't assess my Navara easily because the trip meter reset jams sometimes and the tank reads below empty at 20l left, but I know my other car (2.4 V6) does 7.5l/100km on 98 on the highway, more like 9-10l/100km on 95 E10 mixed cycle. I can get roughly 10l/100km in the Navara mixed cycle, but diesel is 20c/litre cheaper in my hometown. Hopefully a diff ratio swap will improve the economy.

its amazing huh, thats why i opt for a camper trailer and not a roof top tent, but i find the same thing with my canopy, taking it off saves about .5-.7 L/100 but end up with a frozen labrador in winter lol. from reading the posts on here my girl seems amazingly consistant with her fuel usage despite varied driving styles
