Would anyone have information on fuel economy on a 1998 jackaroo, auto, 3.5 lit Petrol engine.
I would be interested in information for normal driving and towing any sort of van

David, I have a 99 model, same specs, I usually get 13-14km/100 on normal driving & on a recent trip fully loaded (including 230l of fuel) and hubs locked, returned about 16km/100. Don't know what you would get in full time city driving. I have one Hiclone fitted and feel that it helps. Sorry, haven't towed vans so don't know those figures. Happy trails, Mike.

David, I have same model, on a trip to Cooktown I averaged 13.2l/100km[o.e. tyres]. [fairly loaded]
Simpson Desert crossing last year carrying 265l fuel plus 100l h2o plus all the other gear av.15.5
Melbourne to Melbourne [goodrich ko] I have only towed a canoe trailer av. 17.5 over 800km. [700 biument.]
