Motorhome Fuel Economy

I chat with a lot of diesel owners at a friends truck repair shop and they are not happy. Medium duty diesel drivers that i talk to these days are fed up with new diesel regulations . They complain about losing business bc of repair down time.

The owners driving routes like Snap- On , bread and soda routes are switching back to gas trucks.
It must be pretty bad to unload $100,000 plus trucks prematurely.
If someone ‘claims’ mpg figures by using simple math counting used gallons and miles driven ,
the results are of doubtful validity.

Different diesel regulations apply outside NA, so fuel economy is considerably better, in this case amazingly better. Diesel regulations in the US are chocking the life out of Diesels in the US, poorer reliability and not very good fuel economy
As I said in my post above none would even consider running a Gas Motorhome,or Gas Commercial Vehicle, their all diesels. Irony is you cannot run a US compliant diesel in a Euro 5 or higher regulation country. So you get the worst of both worlds, Diesels regs in the US are choking diesel commercial operations in the US
