Now that the weather is starting to get cold I getting about 19.6L/100 km. When I first got the truck in Mar.05 I was averaging 16.5 L/100 km which I didn't think was bad, however now that I have 22000 km it seems to be getting worse. In my view this is absolutely ridiculous. I am not driving the truck hard if I do the mileage get even worse. I have consulted my dealership and they say that there is nothing wrong. Have you had the same experience? Is Nissan just to embarassed to post the true stats on there products?

I can't say that I have enoguh miles und the truck to give an accurate representation of the mileage. Currently I'm looking at the trip computer's calculation of 16.5 l/100km. lf it continues, I'll be a little dissapointed, but it's still better than my 1988 Pathfinder with the 3.0L V6 which I traded on the truck.
I know that the standard tranny is more efficient than the auto, and I've read other posts that indicate the difference in gear ratios between the NISMO versions and the LEs/SEs could account for some mileage issues.
Compared to a Titan, or heaven forbid, a HEMI Ram, we're still way better off.
