Hilux gas usage question

[eyephone]

I thinking bout buying a hilux 2006. 4x4, automatic but uses gas. PREMIUM gas. (bleh). The lady selling it says that it takes about $175 to full the tank. I assuming its a 2.5 litre.

Huw much km should i get out of that?

[praise]

One of my friend sold his gas Hilux and bought the diesel hilux because of both the price of premium and the poor gas mileage. Do not expect anything more than 350 KM on a full tank. Actually the gas engine are 2.7 VVTI. The diesel are 2.5 and 3.0, both turbo.

i knw ppl tht use super in their hilux, the gas mileage is around 350-400 kms depends on ur drivin habits, also the gas hilux wud hav a lower resale value n wud be harder to sell than the diesel hilux. the gas hilux wud be a little cheaper to maintain though
