Ok,

Just done a return trip from NW Tas to Hobart (in 1 day). Total distance was 670KM, average fuel use was 6.7l per 100. That was sitting pretty much on 110 all the way with four large adults and not worrying about using the accelerator to pass. Most of the trip was with the cruise control set.

As it was a 1 day trip there was minimal luggage. Pretty impressed really as we left with a full tank and returned home with about a 3rd on the gauge. Filled it up this morning for $57.00 (Stinky's about $1.26 in Tas at the moment).

I was more impressed by the comfort of the ride on such a trip. Last year, before buying the Mondy, we did the same thing with an Aurion hire car and while it was better than our old crapadore, it was still exhausting ( I don't know if it was the tyres the hire company was running or not, but the road noise was terrible (not so the Mondeo)).
