Gas mileage
Hello everyone, happy to join the experts. I am in the process of purchasing a 1999 Tioga 31 footer with 450 10 valve engine and I'm concerned about the gas mileage. Greatly appreciate feedback. Than...

Yeah the 8.5 was overloaded and thru hills etc in Canada.
I'll be headin for Wy in 10-days. Interstate all the way.
Plus I've stripped and shipped most of the weight I added and all the cooking gear and pillows the previous owner's wife added. Man she had corning ware cooking pots and pans and casserole dishes stacked like a picture puzzle in the drawers. If you removed one, you'd never get it back less ya placed it exactly like she had it. Ha!. A real riot Alice!...
Hope to weight it before I head out.
I'll be sure to post my mileage.
Oh..the friend I stay in Wa builds and races. He has 2 drivers. FYI...he said if the Triton has flat tappets you need to add oil with zinc in it. If you have roller tappets, you can use reg oil or syn.
Anyone use syn in the older V-10s?
