A quick calculation of the fuel efficiency says you got about 10.5 kmpl for this trip. Is this mileage normal for your Duster ? |
Thanks for your kind words.
If this is what your calculations say, I am very happy to have got anywhere close to 10.
It was a mix of flat lands and hills so I would not be able to share an absolute number. There is a real time mileage indicator in the dash which goes down till 8.7 kmpl in city. But on the hills I have seen it go as low as 3.7 kmpl but we all know how accurate things are in the Dash region. Last year for the sikkim trip, I think I got somewhat similar. http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/travel...uster-awd.html Quote:

I've to say mate apart from you (Bong) & your Duster (Bong-Duster), your family deserves a 5 star! ![Smile](https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.png) Kudos to them too.
NL, MN, MZ & TR remains. I give you international permit, plan to drive to our neighboring nations!

Did you have to change the air filter during the trip? And did the engine warning lights come on at any time? Any other issues related to the vehicle? |

Fantastic travelogue. The pictures as expected from you are superb. The amount of details that you have provided is great. I liked the GPX playback. Will take a class from you on how to take those.
This is the go to travelogue for anyone traveling to Arunachal.
And finally HULK & Bong Duster met.
Rated 5 Stars.

It was lovely meeting you PavanDa thanks for your kind words, glad the dusters finally met.
Yes rendering the GPX data in 3D really helps everyone understand the terrain better.
