Leather headrests had fraying stitches, to be replaced under warranty.
Airconditioning had to be re gassed and a component replaced.
Selling dealer service is very poor, but I now deal with another service department whose service is excellent.
The car handles very well, although it is a firm riding car that some people may find uncomfortable.
The fuel economy for a 5.7 Litre V8 is remarkable. I am getting under 10L/100km on highway trips, and am averaging 12.5L/100km city cycle. The worst consumption over a 50km stretch has been 17.6L/100km and that was driving very hard in Sydney.
As a highway tourer it is excellent, set the cruise for 110km/h and sit back and relax, or take the twisty roads if you want to have fun.
I own a 5.7 ute six speed, I live in central qld. I did a trip down to orange, I got 8.35L/100 on the trip between Goondiwindi and Dubbo.
Hi there, I live in Perth and I have just bought a SS ute 5.7 litre V8 series one and the fuel consumption seems OK at the moment, I seem to be getting around 13 litres in the city and about the same on country runs, can someone please tell me if this is normal and will fuel consumption drop as motor is run in a bit more, I only have 1500km on it so far, thanks in appreciation.
