I only trust a computer with averages, over a long period of time.
Human brains have too many variables mixed in, for getting a true number.

And, I still don't know if it's counting the fuel used by the genset, but most likely no and with the info coming from the engine's ECM.
Can anyone add to how this is calculated?
Unless there's a leak or other problem, MPG are the least of our concerns for cost of ownership, with one of the most expensive, being depreciation per mile.
Maybe someone should start a thread for that, since there are many that address MPG.
In the case of our coach, it looks like the first two owners averaged an expense of $4.54 per mile of depreciation alone. Naturally, the first one, who bought it new, suffered the most.
