Dora tha Gas Guzzling Explorer after 1486 km. Towing range has been 176 to 246 km. We also learned not to trust the distance to empty metre. We ran out of gas when it said 8km remaining, about 5km from the nearest gas station.

You stole the record for worst fuel consumption from me!How much of that is towing that trailer of yours, and how much is just running empty? I have no doubt if I was pulling your trailer with my truck, it would also be up there. I think I'd have a lot more range, though. Bigger tank.
82% towing. The 85 litre tank kind of sucks for towing. I'd imagine towing with a 100 kW Cybertruck or 115 kW F150 Lightning would also be bad.
Took the Jag for a nice long trip to Indian River and back. 3 adults in car, one very excited 5 year old. 130 and 90 zones. Great drive albeit with some 401 moments...horrific drivers. Mileage was fantastic I might say.Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk

130 zone crazy. I guess 80 mph doesn't make it seem as bad. You got really good mileage considering. The old Skyactiv 3 would've been in the 7s at 130-140.

Anyhow that is crazy good mileage considering the only XF-S on fuelly was showing a 13.2 MPG average (17.8L/100km) on PREMIUM. Need deep pockets.

The ex's Explorer has been doing about 16-17 L/100km not towing the trailer. At least it only requires regular. I would only own a vehicle that needs premium if there was a Costco gas station in town.
Did 294 km in the C8 and it took 48 litres to top it up before I took it back
Where is this 130 kph zone in Canada?
