Yeah wish i had a bigger tank. I can't even go to Saskatoon from edmonton and back on a tank of gas, I figured if I had the 36 gallon tank I would have just made it there and back and home with 0 gas to spare.

Thats why I clicked in too! haha
To the OP, what kind of driving do you normally do? City or highway?
In the city I average around 16 us/mpg and highway at either 19-20 us/mpg.
which is around 850-900km a tank city.
I use the mpg in the truck so I can watch the .1-.9 fluctuate so I have better idea on the gas being used.

and I still only put a little under 131 L.... with that 5L i could have squeezed in another 31km!
not that I'm not knocking the possiblity.... Ive never used 100% a tank on highways yet, always a mix with mostly city driven too.

I'm from the USA and I'm averaging 18.7 mpg and get 653 miles to a tank of fuel.
I have the 36 gallon tank so his estimates/figures are correct.

that is 12.36L/100km, that is providing that you used all 136L, that is with stock tires right? And mainly hwy? You must be light on the gas, are you a hypermilear? this is very believable, next time you fill up calculate the Litres say 136L divided by the 1100km divided by 100= 11.00(km)=12.36L/100km way easier than converting to the us gallon and confusing it with the old imperial....I used to hate the L thing, now I find it easier and more accurate, so the calculation is 136/11=12.36 the confusing way I presented this was the 1100.km is divided by one hundred, that is how it is 11.

I was at 0 km to empty and filled up the other day and actually put 99.09L into my supposedly 98L tank (first cutoff, no topping up). That was close!!!
As far as the L/100km and US MPG goes, I find that the L/100km just mean absolutely nothing to me to this day. My truck averages 10L/100km on the trip computer so I know that as long as it's at 10 I'm happy, but I still switch to english all the time to see the MPG display.
