My Itasca gasser is so quiet that people phoning me don’t know I’m driving, they think I’m sitting at home. The wind noise is by far the loudest background noise, and it’s so muffled people can’t tell I’m going down the road at 65mph.
Lumping all vehicles together is not just wrong, it’s silly. A base level pick up and a Caddy are both gassers, do you really think they ride the same and gave the same interior noise level?
where all gassers are noisy is when your driving up steeper mountain passes at 3/4 to full throttle and your down in 2 nd gear area
or trying to pass at wfo
All gassers?
Mine rarely comes out of 5th gear and I’m not sure I can ever remember a time when it dropped back into 3rd gear let alone 2nd.
Mind you I rarely climb hills steeper than 6% so it’s not a huge problem. Just hit the bottom a tad faster and stay on it. No problem at all.
no idea what size yours is or weight of toad etc but (example) 35 ft 3 slide gasser with toad going up a 6 % grade like mammoth you will be in 3rd or 2nd gear at about 35MPH that I guarantee or the grapevine out of La in California same thing
theres not a gas MH alive that go up mamouth mt in 5 th gear or 4th for that matter
