Average gas mileage on C class
We now have a 32' fifth wheel. We get 10 miles pulling. Thinking of downsizing to C class (about 30'). Hoping to get at least 10 miles to gallon. Have any suggestions? Mema

Hard to comprehend why so many RV drivers are so concerned about the fact if someone passes them and the incessant need to 'keep up' with the pack whether it's over the speed limit or not while driving/towing an RV?
As long as you are doing the speed limit or the lowest speed allowed (which is posted), if someone else wants to go faster why would ANY one care if they are passed??
Truckers have been driving/passing for years and 9 times out of 10 even if you ARE going over the speed limit they crawl up you but and then pass.
Sorry, RV's are big, heavy, high profile and more importantly hard to stop on a dime. Towing a trailer and stopping on a dime to avoid an accident? Well we see the result of those going too fast jackknifed and upside down in the ditch all the time.
Just not worth it to me and more importantly I know it's not safe in the RV I am driving for myself and those around me.
I waited a LONG time to retire and go RV'ing. Certainly not going to go fast to keep up with the pack or to avoid another passing me and become a statistic or worse yet make some else's family a statistic. Just saying.
