Hi Graeme alot of people dont believe these figures but if it did 30lts per 100 i would say that,these truck are running on 1600 revs at 90klm per hour they are just idling.
Next time you see a yank tank on the road ask the same question and im pretty sure you will get similiar figures.

Great effort fuel wise with the Ftrucks,turning circle would take a bit of getting used too,
but I have owned n driven trucks and semi,s so you just have to allow for it.

 I find my truck to be extremely easy to handle with a much smaller turning circle then I initially thought.
