Everyone i know who's into cars just fills their tank to full, not even looking at how much it cost or how much their putting in.

Get in the ute
about the same amount you would use by going full throttle from say 80-170 km/h in your 1:1 gear about 20 times.. (less wind resistance etc) - and also a bit of cruising around and say 1 hour worth of idling :)

- if you're asking because you want to know how much fuel to go there with:

go with a full tank of whatever fuel you usually run!! - also fill up a few days beforehand to let the fuel settle and 'age' in the tank - this way the tune will be done to suit the regular driving conditions of the car!
