I have a 1997 460, 37 foot RV and on my last trip (without towing a car) I was trying to keep up with a relative on our way to a campground. I ended up going over 70 mph for the whole trip (about an hour). I drove normal on the way back (around 60 mph). When I calculated my mpg it was about 5.7 mpg. This is with a tuned up 460 and the full Banks system. I was a little unhappy with that mileage at first, but then remembered that I was going over 70 mph for the first part of the trip. I've noticed that speed and hills REALLY drop your mileage.
I've since stopped calculating the mpg. It really does not mean any thing since I will still take the RV on trips whether it gets 5.7 mpg or 7.5 mpg. I would rather just enjoy the RV experience with my family and not worry about it.
Enjoy.
