Best fuel consumption I ever got on GT

Submitted by pwnell on Mon, 07/25/2011 - 08:44

My new Ford Mustang GT 2011 is a real sucker when it comes to fuel consumption.  When I drive enthusiastically, I get 20 l/100km.  When I drive normally I get about 15 l/100km.  The best I could ever muster, for a brief period of 10 minutes, was 9 l/100km, when I was driving to Osoyoos.  The moment I started entering the mountain passes that figure dropped to 10 l/100km.

At $1.50 per litre for petrol at the moment in Canada for 91 octane, and at these consumption rates, I am in for a bitter sweet period...  This was after about 150km of driving in the city...
