    My new Alterra has an "instantaneous" as well as "cumulative" digital readout of fuel consumption in the speedometer cluster. I can tell at any given moment how driving habits affect fuel mileage.

    I do not know which Isuzu vehicles have this feature but, If you can get this as a retrofit, it would be well worth it.

    The Isuzu D-Max also has this feature. It's quite accurate so it's really useful.

    Ontopic: 140kph D-Max LS A/T (SLEX)

    +1 to this. This is a pic I took running a '08 4x2 LS AT * STAR Tollway:



    Believe me, I reached 200kph but that was definitely way fast for the same set of hands to take a picture at while holding the steering wheel. I believe the RPM was almost around 4,000.

    Ang tulin pala ng DMax. Hindi mo aakalain due to their engine specs. Maganda ibig sabihin tranny niya.

    No. It's what is called perfect harmony in powertrain (engine vis-a-vis transmission)

    Ergo, don't be misled that not because you have slapped a hi horse engine it would mean you get the best performance and fuel efficiency..... nah! More often than not, you get the opposite result.

    tama sir benz!.. it doesn't always means that way. Sometimes it means the other way around which you don't expect the most.

    Sabagay kahit sa mga heavy duty trucks nila magaling nga yung harmony ng engine and tranny ng Isuzu. Kaya very fuel efficient din.
