Immthinking of getting the above, newer shape on 2006. Any1 have a idea of real mpg on petrol on what I might expect on LPG? Had a 5.9 a few years back and loved it so this is the next step smile

Thanks!

500 BHP is pretty much the limit for running LPG. SRT's are notorious for burning pistons when running on it.

As Viper says, 8 MPG round town is normal. I collected an '06 version from Chichester recently and got 14 (US) MPG on the run back but that was all main road/motorway driving.

Crew Cab Sport is even better. But then they're later models so a bit dearer.

Now you're talking, but petrol wise the V8 is the kiddie, V10 SRT is pointless and useless
