Mostly highway driving (SLEX, STAR Tollway, provincial highways), tried to keep it at around 80-100 kph for majority of the trip. Going any faster than this really stresses the poor old engine.

Mostly highway driving as well, but got stuck in Manila traffic for a little bit. 100-120 kph on the highway and frequent overtaking on the provincial roads (oh boy, overtaking with something as slow as this is a painstaking process). Had to floor the pedal most of the time to do this, awfully stressing the engine, resulting in the relatively dismal consumption. I was resigned to thinking the truck's too old to be efficient, until I did the Batangas trip described above.
