What is the fuel economy, or UNeconomy, on a "C".

We were looking at some Winnebago Class "C" units, the F-350 and I think a couple had F-450's.....What is the Cu In and roughly what would the gas mileage be? I had the impression they were all gas, not diesel.
  • Average of 6.81 mpg over 15,534.9 miles (E-450) - towing with the "frog" behind at ~62 mph.
  • I'm getting ready to pull out Friday, In my lawn chair I got about 16 mpg, I'm hope it holds right in there on the road. You just never know, I might get 20 if I'm lucky.
    29 ft.
  • 2011 32ft E-450 V-10 -~7-8 at 60 mph; With a 2012 CRV toad, 7mph
  • E-450, V10, 31 ft - avg 11 mpg - if you keep it at a constant 55.
    Got 12 mpg twice.
  • Are you sure these are "F" series units and not "E"? The Ford E-series was the base for most Class C RVs until the Sprinter chassis appeared. As someone who owned an E-450 based Class C with the V-10 engine I can say that the fuel economy is ~9 mpg if you keep speed to less than 65 mph. At higher speeds we were lucky to get 8 mpg.
