Two weeks ago we boast that we were able to take my Toyota Vios to Genting Highland and back in one full tank, you can read it here. Well last weekend I took my daughter to Cameron Highlands, this time around we were able to achieve Penang -> Cameron -> Ipoh -> Penang with some petrol to spare.

 

Detail breakdown of my trip as below.

 

1.       Penang -> Cameron Highlands, exiting Simpang Pulai.

2.       Spent one night at Cameron highlands, drove around and visiting some of the popular tourist attraction.

3.       Left the next afternoon with a short break at Ipoh. Along the downhill, some of the time, I had my automatic gear transmission at ‘D’ and let the vehicle rolls without hitting the gas.

4.       When I reached home, Penang, I still have some gas left, only have to filled up the next day.

 

So far the only response we had from the previous blog was someone driving his City and apparently has a better fuel consumption. We would love if our readers take note of their next trip and share with us their experience. We would post your experience with your car in our blog, so that everyone would have a better idea what they would expect from their car in terms of fuel consumption. Sent your stories to steven@luk4all.com.

 

On a side note, I remember Cameron Highlands was much colder when my parents took me there like 25 years ago. Guess all the hill cutting and global warming is making Cameron less cold. With the rate things are going, guess when its my daughter’s turn to take her children up to Cameron highlands in 30+ years time, Cameron Highlands would just be as hot as Penang ‘Highlands’ or KL ‘Highlands’. Sigh.
