**benny010** · April 9th, 2003 12:36 AM

I just measure my gas consumption on the first trip:
when i got the trooper last saturday, nag-full tank ako...
from pasay (residence) punta ng megamall last sunday,
monday, tagaytay--- picnic grv, palace in the sky, & the newly renovate taal vista hotel.
tuesday , ofc lang at bahay... full tank after 210km trip.
it turned out to be 6.5km/l...
ganito ba talaga :?: :?: :?:
paging all trooper owner : IceColdBeer, gjtech, boybi, wiretap...
pls post your consumption here...

expected ko mga 10km/l (sana)...

i also retrieve below thread:

http://www.tsikot.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=3 162&highlight=trooper

kay mdpo at kay jackaroo, 6.2km/l rin lang...
though si ferdi 7.5 & 10... di naman sya matulin magpatakbo...

ako kung magpatakbo, accelerate agad... parang gusto kong mabilis agad...
dahil kaya dun :?: pero may highway naman ako a... :roll:

ok kaya ang max speed na 100kph sa break-in???

**mbt** · April 9th, 2003 12:50 AM

yung 6.5 km/L na yun may heavy traffic bang kasama yun or stop-and-go driving? that will make your average plunge... pero anyway, it's bound to improve as the engine loosens up after the break-in period...

**benny010** · April 9th, 2003 12:57 AM

mbt, sana nga... the reason also I choose trooper is its consumption ( aside from its performance)... walang heavy traffic na na-encounter... ahhh may stationary din ako sa bahay when i studied the radio...

so much for the 62.7km/l consumption..as published sa mga newspapers about the trooper...:twisted:

misprint siguro dapat 6.27km/l? :D

benny010,

I really didn't have the chance to measure it. Perhaps this coming holy week bubusisiin ko na ng husto. Tamang tama lang kasi bagong service lang yun for the first 1500 kms.

Dami mo ng binyahe ah he he :D

**mdpo** · April 9th, 2003 11:34 AM

benny: sa akin 6.2 to 6 lang city driving have already lag 7k into it.. talaga atang ganun... expected ko din nga at least 10 eh

. First 5,000 if possible wag ka muna masyado lumampas ng 2,500 rpm.

Sa akin first 3,000 i stick to the below 2,500 pero after minsan nilalampas ko na.. and have already tried going beyond 100 km... ganun talaga sarap patakbuhin ng mabilis hehee :mrgreen:

Di ka naman mabibitin sa speed nyan.. have tried 160km/h and kaya pa pag tinapak kaso di na kaya ng puso ko hehehe

**benny010** · April 9th, 2003 11:39 AM

ICB, byahe... kasi semi-break-in ko sya for Baguio trip this 04/13 to 4/16... :lol:

**gjtech** · April 9th, 2003 02:17 PM

benny010, pareho lang tayo 6.5 din... puro city driving pa lang. diesel naman eh hehehe

wiretap_md, pwede pong makita yung additionals sa trooper nyo through a pic? thanks...

benny010,

i was getting 6+ when my trooper was new (<5K kilometers) now i am fluctuating between 6.8 to 7.5 for city driving. pure highway (no traffic e.g. go to laguna, batangas, etc.) easily 10 km/l. what i noticed that influenced this aside from traffic conditions are tire inflation pressure and driving style (this is the major influencer). looks like you are getting normal mileage
