P400 Mileage
I'm curious what gas mileage everyone is getting with the P400. I was actually excited when ordering the car because the EPA rating was 3 MPG better than the 5.0 in my LR4, but after 1000 miles (still early) I'm getting 2MPG worse that the LR4. Ours is driven mostly in the city, and on road trips is often pulling a 5000lb trailer. The LR4 sticker showed 14MPG combined and we achieved about 13, the Defender was rated at 17 combined and we're just shy of 11 (US Gallons obviously)

At least the Defender holds one more gallon of gas than the LR4. My LR4 just makes it from my house to the Mobil station off exit 10 in Stowe, VT on one tank of gas. On those slower trips in bad weather using snow mode, the low fuel light is on before I even get to the exit.
Just got back from a trip to Panamint & Death Valley, which combined lots of off-road as well as freeway driving. Trip was 1018 miles at 21.8 mpg at an average speed of 40mph. On the freeway driving, I've found that the sweet spot on my '21 D90 seems to be around 63mph -- on a different trip from San Jose to Orange County, I averaged 27.5mph - spend time tucked in behind big rigs in the slow lane.
