We had an '01 E-350 Class C mh. We go to antique tractor shows and caravans towing tractor on a flat bed trailer, and sometimes our car, not all at once.
I would set the cruse at 60mph on the express ways.
One time we drove US-2, 2 lane and a lot of small towns to slow down at and sometimes a stop light, for a few hundred miles.
I figured that our gas milage would drop, because of the slow downs and stops. But it was better than express way driving. So now I drive 55 on the express ways also.
The wind resistance is what is hard on gas milage, the faster you drive the higher the resistance.
