"9 mpg, based on my experience, is probably rather on the high side to expect. I'd expect about 7.5 to 8 mpg (probably closer to 8 here), and let anything better be a nice surprise. "
I have put 41,000 miles on ours from coast to coast over the last 4.5 years, often towing my Harley and consistently average 9.5 to include a little generator run time. I typically cruise at 60 - 63 and 65 max on the interstates. Keep in mind I have the E-350, GVWR 11,500 with the 4:10 differential which gives better mileage and smoother ride than the E-450. Under 25' the E-350 is the way to go unless you plan on loading and towing heavy.
As always... Opinions and YMMV.
