I don't have an exact figure but I guess it's not far off either. Gen 1 Expeditions with the 4.6 V8 also consumed 3-4km/L in bumper to bumper traffic.

Our Gen. 2 Expedition with 4.6L Triton V8's average city driving FC is around 4.8-5 km/l. If bumper-to-bumper traffic it is around 3.9-4.3 km/l. For those with the 5.4L Triton V8, how's the FC compared to ours? This is crucial because this will be the deciding factor if we're gonna be buying the GS HVX from Hancars

Definitely NOT!

Gawa lang daw ni Atoy yung loob ng Limousine ni HARI. So fugly!!

And malamang same suspension din yung Limousine ni HARI sa mga ibang variants nila ng GS.

If the fuel consumption hurts, there's no amount of explanation on ride comfort, size, american muscle, di na sinisita ng guwardiya etc etc will ever justify owning a big a** ford. just get a Starex or a Grandia, definitely a more economical choice. And wise.

I checked the Limousine of HARI during a motorshow. Parang pang jeepney yung pagkagawa sa loob.

I was also told by Hancars (or was it Pitstop) that HARI's Limousine were done by Atoy.

Passing by Ford in the Fort I saw their ad re: LPG kits. I wonder how much that kit will bring the E-150's cost/Km back to earth.

No one answered my question on this. Your answers will be a crucial factor to my dad's decision if he will still go for a 2nd hand 3rd generation Expedition or for a brand new GS HVX from Hancars. E-150 is already out of the question as we found out that its actual city driving FC is around 3-4 km/l.

I already did. Thank you.

Actual City driving would be 3-4km/l
last time i checked, the trip computer says 29L/100kms

as i told you, the e150s and 1st-3rd generation Expeditions averages roughly 3-4 in the city. Di na magkakalayo yan. I'm surprised some people can get 5. They must have an extremely light foot and I don't think 5 is possible in bumper to bumper traffic.
