90 Series Prado

Bolts,
I have a 90 series and am very happy with it. City driving (Freeway/normal streets) on fuel 12.5 to 13.5 litres per 100 Kms. On LPG 17.5 to 19 litres per 100 Kms. We have an 18ft FG Half Cabin (1250kg loaded) and it tows it no probs. Is a bit sluggish on a steep hill but it gets there. Fuel usage does go up when towing but it's still a lot more economical than the 80 series landcruiser we used to have... except for the power!!!!!
Cheers,
David
