hi spawnster

Congrats on the new rig.

Now that it is new, maybe you can let your son practice his arithmatic
with the running bills of the fuel.. (if son that age range lar..).

Just let him manage the keeping the "555" book keeping....

it's a 2.5(m). today travelled around klang to shah alam to kota
damansara. clocked about 100km++ oledi. fuel gauge still at full. but
truth be told since i was driving auto for many many years oledi, going
back to manual is a bit taxing.Frown

but truth be told, pick-up was lacking.(no pun intended) felt like i was
driving a tank. hahaBig Smile of course i didn't really tekan cos hvn't break
in yet. highway travelling was ok. touched 110km/h a few times but 90%
was 90km/h.

anyways once i get a proper FC count then i'm sure all -ve will be
forgotten.Wink

spawnster,

shouldn't you get some rebate from Isuzu for writing a review? Just a
thought.

ok, i've travelled 220km oledi and fuel indicator is at 3/4 full mark. if
calculate based on that then thereotical the final FC would be 880km.
that would work out to be RM10.47/100km.

A Rexton 290 auto diesel owner told me his car uses only 10 sen per km. I
don't know whether to believe or not. My guts feel says he is talking cock
but would give him the benefit of my doubt.
