For all those who just love to quote "if you have to ask", to each his own, but what makes you right???
"Asking" was part of my research, and I never expected to get more than 10 based on buses that I drove. However, I still wanted to know for several reasons. An important one is if you routinely get 8 or 9 mpg, and suddenly get 2 or 3 mpg with no environmental changes, common sense... the same common sense for wanting to know, would tell you to start looking for problems before they get more expensive. Why is SilverLeaf surviving? Because many want to know what their engines are doing. So please, lighten up on those who are only trying to educate themselves.

The op asked to compare a specific coach against other possible coaches ie " which gets better mileage " I just assumed mileage might make a difference in his selection . At a difference if 1-2 mpg and the average rver going less than 5000 miles a year mileage on a 150,000 coach is a little minor blip .
I didn't say You shouldn't track your mileage and monitor ... I do and can tell you the total gallons I've put in and miles driven since I bought it and the gen hours . ...( mpg) And compare at each fill up for the reasons you state . But that's not what he asked , at least that's my take and I've been wrong before . I honestly believe mileage is not on my checklist .... How much I pay , interest rate , lost investment income rate etc now THEY are ;-)
