according to a website its 34 gallons which converts into 128.7 liters. sounds about right anyway.

also put on 33" tires.
alright so you having the extra 30 litres would probably get you about another 250km im guessing so my truck should be gettin about 350 in the city so im gonna do all my oil changes and that crap and see if i can manage that kinda mileage hopefully i can

probably not that much. if i get just over 600km off of, we'll call it 130 liters, thats 300km for 65 liters. then more like 150km for 32.5 liters.

all on paper of course. i wish i could get 250km off of 30 liters

well if you did all highway driving im sure you could cus like you said you use about 10-12L/100km which would work out to 250-300 kms for 30 litres
