So, you are accusing us of lying? I fear that you will have to admit to being wrong on this one. I don't use the vehicle computer and I too have an Excel spreadsheet where I have listed every fill and the mileage. It's simple math and I've got all the numbers if you want to look.
I averaged 12.5 driving from ND to AZ and 12.8 driving back home. It included mountains, two lane prairie flatland with small towns, winds of all directions and speeds. I don't tow... and since it was very early winter, there was no water on board... except in gallon jugs.
I have been very happy with my mileage. Between these two long trips, I used it as a daily driver in AZ. I got between 8.5 and 9.3 mpg in the city on my trips to the gym and shopping... including exercising the generator.
Of course I beleive your figures, but you have to admit that gas mileage is one of those things that you have heard your share of "fish stories". I'm sure you have heard some guy with a diesel pickup tell you he gets 18 mpg towing his 35 foot 5th wheeler.
I'm glad your 6.0 has been fuel efficient for you. Mine is powerful and reliable but has always been thirsty. Solo around town I get around 11, towing the small trailer 10, and towing a 6K equipment trailer maybe 8. It probably makes a difference that the area that I live in is very hilly. Just my driveway is a 22% grade.
To tag onto the last reply, it does seem to me that owners of non-cabover Cs (AKA B plus) motorhomes consistently report better mpg than owners with cabovers, regardless of whether they are Chevy or Ford.
