In town and off road it will drop to 28-31 l/100km . My F250 is a super cab short box and 110l fuel tank. Not great range .
Hopefully this deal will go through and will be driving a Tundra in the very near future .

I agree. These guys calling a Toyota pig on fuel i just I can't understand it. I guess compared to a modern small car. My wife's toy with 33" tires a 5.7 hemi she I gets 16 L per hundred km which considering its all gravel roads and winter driving. That's crazy good on gas for a gas truck that size under those conditions.
These new trucks are great on gas its just that we are paying over $8 a gallon. That's even more expensive than milk! Its crazy what we are paying for fuel and it shouldn't be.
When I was trucking years ago I would always burn atleast 175 gallons a day so that's about 800 liters a day. No wonder groceries coast so much. Even a carbureted 70s pick up truck if you got 8 miles to the gallon which is actually good fuel mileage at today's fuel prices that's what $60 to drive 100km.
