It doesn't seem to make an enourmous difference to fuel economy if it's carrying a load although I don't carry stuff that often over a reasonable distance to have any accurate figures for it.

That seems to be about the average. As long as LPG stays at 50% or less than the price of Petrol or Diesel, I think the maths work out OK for me with a 4.7Ltr V8 with auto transmission.
