my car current mileage 1.3k like that
fc is 12.5km/L
with 50% city
what is the 3.0 fc? i was planning to get 3.0 but i heard fc is 10+km/L
kind of deterring me from getting 3.0, especially double road tax.  sweat.gif
a must is locktech lo, i got mine installed rm310 at sh@rty 5 shop at klang
then im planning either connex or captor. still deciding.

Ya 3.0 fc is around that la, 10-11++km/l. But since i doin everyday work wif my vigo 3.0 carrying heavy loads, not too much lar, around 200-350kg a day, except sunday, the meter show 9.9km/l. daily trip roughly around 50-60km. 1 week 1 full tank cun. 1 full tank if according to digital meter can go 659km. So far i drive full tank 7-8 days then refuel again. I got my vigo 3.0 end of march 2012, now mileage already 25K.. LOL.. Even do carrying heavy load like 300kg d vigo still can climb up 120kmh quite easy. I know 1 good tips people said, if u wanna hv good fc using vigo 3.0, jz maintain rpm2000 or below during top gear, which mean average speed 90-100kmh. Rpm2000=100kmh top gear.

You can look into:

A. Theft Prevention
1. Pedal Lock
2. Steering Lock
3. Gear Shift Lock
4. Additional Immobilizer

B. Vehicle Recovery
1. Cobra (TTDI) or Captor (Batu Caves) where they install a GPS tracker into your vehicle, and track for you when you report lost. You pay 'one-time' GPS system + installation cost, thereafter an annual service fee for the life of the vehicle.
2. After market GPS Tracker, where you pay 'one-time' GPS system + installation, but provide installer a SIM card. Your monthly cost will be the cost of SIM Card telco plan only, but you track your vehicle yourself via your cell phone. If its stolen, you have to call the cops and track the vehicle yourself. Many brands available in Automotive Garage section.

C. Carjacking
1. Go jogging every day so that if this should happen, you can run away from your assailants as far and fast as possible, with your mobile so you can track. If you are taken along with your vehicle, agree to surrender your car and your phone, pray hard, shut up and hope for the best.

Happy hunting, good luck, drive safe, stay safe.

-----
For the paranoid, some additional things to consider:

1. Park in well lit and open areas, not some dark corner of the world.
2. Add Anti-smash tint on the windows.
3. Be observant when filling up at gas stations. Don't leave keys in ignition.
4. When taking passengers (wife, parents, kids), be aware that they may be the ones who may be taken, so keep doors locked whenever possible.
5. Don't disclose your security features to the world. Keep this to yourself.
6. If you are knocked by third party, observe first who knocked into your vehicle. If you don't feel comfortable, stay a distance when negotiating, or just take a photo of the third party's vehicle and leave the scene asap.

You can google more safety tips from various sites for more of info. While you want to prevent your vehicle from being taken, bear in mind that if shit hits the fan, the priority is your personal safety, as well as the safety of those who ride with you.

chip tuning usually give or claim fc advantage at lower rpm(below 2000rpm) in addition of increasing hp and torque.
higher rpm means high fc,low rpm low fc.

ROAD TAX per year:

2.5 Diesel around RM800

3.0 Diesel around RM1600
INSURANCE

Depends on value of vehicle. A rough gauge is as follows:

Car Value: RM80k, Premium around RM 2,400
Car Value: RM70k, Premium around RM 2,100
Car Value: RM60k, Premium around RM 1,850
Car Value: RM50k, Premium around RM 1,600

This is just estimated based on Comprehensive (1st and 3rd Party), Engine 2.2 to 3.0, Peninsular Malaysia, Private use, and NOT inclusive of any Loading so pls dont sue me if not accurate.

Less: No Claim Bonus (NCB) Discount if you have.

For more info, ask ur agent. Just bear in mind that you can go for any insurance company so not necessary the one that your salesman recommend. Some insurance companies give FREE AAM auto assist if you sign with them. Only drawback for Hilux is that many insurance companies don't accept due to high theft rate coupled with the fact that they cannot, by law, simply impose Loading.

Happy hunting.
