Gas mileage

Be certain to always drive with the wind at your back! :)

We are newbies, and not trying to give you a hard time, but we are getting 15 mpg on diesel in our class C. I started driving up to 75 mph (where legal) and was getting 12 mpg. Now I keep it to 65.

(Shameless self-promotion) I have tried to drive for max mileage for decades now in all our vehicles. Very gentle acceleration, long anticipation of stopping (foot off the go-pedal), etc. Lots of info out there.

But maybe don't obsess about it like I do, just enjoy yourself. Isn't that what this is all about?

I had a 89 27 foot jamboree and tuned it up etc and found 8 to be the best I could get. Going against a head wind on I 80 in Nebraska at times I would get 6 pulling my boat! Had a blast in that rig especially when gas was just over a buck a gallon in the late 90's. In fact thats just a year after I bought the rig.

8 is pretty good for a Ford 460. Slow down to 55 to 57 and enjoy the ride. That said, "quit worring about mileage and enjoy the RV."

1. Slow down to 55
Otherwise,
Clean air filter
Synthetic oil
Correct tire pressure
Wax the C
Don''t gun away from stop signs/lights

But the best gas mileage is to
Stay home??? and camp in the driveway HaHa

I get 9 to 10 on my C, but figure it is the cost of enjoying myself

Improving your mileage by 1+ MPG is easy, buy gas without ethanol.
