9.5 MPG - c'mon
I average around 9mpg and don't do anything special to try to make it that way. My comfort zone for highway speed is max 65, so I guess that plays into the overall fuel economy, but I drive 65 because I'm more comfortable and not to save fuel. Quite simply, the lack of good fuel mileage is already factored into my mentality when traveling, so I don't really worry about it. When the needle gets below half a tank, I start looking for a gas station big enough for me to pull Big Girl through and fill 'er up. So far, my destinations have been close enough to get there on a single tank of fuel, and then fill up when I get there BEFORE I get settled into the campground. That way, if we need to evacuate for any reason, I'm already full and we just have to drop utilities to roll!
At the end of the day.... I did NOT buy my rig for economy.
