Consumption

I do not know if this thread is in the right place but I have read several post and ? about consumption. As I am a rep and travell a lot in around and about gauteng, limpopo and Durbs I thought it would make interesting reading on consumption. I will try and post my usage as often as I fill up and im sure some one out there will find it usefull. This also relates to where to fill up. Sasol, Caltex, Shell, Total Etc. I avg about 2 Tanks a week so will fill this space quick.

I've also started to keep track of my consumption like that, but ended up just doing the actual every time and may checking it with the OBC. Very handy info indeed though.

I've found that the OBC gives me 2-3km/l better than the actual. Worst case I had was in December to PE where the OBC showed 22km/l and I got 18something actual. :thumbsup:
