Driving with the generator on
Just curious if anyone knows the difference in MPG when riding with and without the generator on. Has anyone done any measurements on the gas mileage they get? Thanks

The generator will use about or less than 1 gallon per hour. So if you are driving 60 MPH in the mountains and getting 6 MPG, that is 10 GPH and add the generator's 1/2 to 1 gallon and you will have a total of about 10.5 - 11 GPH.
If you are getting 8 MPG and going 60, that is about 7.5 GPH, and going to 8 GPH will mean you are getting slightly less than 8 MPG, perhaps 7.5 MPG.
Really if you are comfortable, that is what it is all about. So what if it costs another $2 per hour to drive the RV?
