Fuel costs are one of the largest costs in RV ownership-possibly second only to depreciation. Depending on fuel prices typically $4000-$5000 per 10,000 miles. Or $40,000 to $50,000 per 100,000 miles. Maybe we'll catch a break on some of this if the fuel prices stay low.
A very interesting analysis .... the likes of which I've never seen posted before!
I guess hidden in your numbers is the fact that it would take around 100,000 miles to pay back the extra cost of a Sprinter chassis under a Class C over that of a good old Ford chassis under a Class C ... of course varying a bit depending upon gas prices.
