V10 gas mileage

Disappointed to only get 8 mpg on my 27' Sunseeker E450 with Triton V-10...I didn't drive over 60 on Interstate, and although there was city stop/go as well, thought I'd get at least 10mpg. Thoughts? Lee
  • Different winds..not towing.Flat Florida. Good to hear it might improve with some more miles on it.
  • When I had a 24' Born Free Class C on the Ford E450 V10 I averaged 9 mpg.
  • I've had 4 coaches with the V10. You won't get your best MPG until you get 8 to 10K on the motor. 8 is pretty good for starters!

    Why did you think that high?
    Salesman?
    Is it broke in.
  • You must have had the wind behind you. Live with it, that is pretty good.
