Seems that everyone always gets better mileage than me, no matter what I'm driving.
I'm an easy driver too, with easy starts off the line and for cruising at 57mph and just enough to prevent downshifting into 5th going over grades.
I'm at 16tons and over a 13yr period, among three owners, my average is 6.2 on the OEM digital dash readout. I tow as well and was only able to increase this average by 0.1 over four years.
Not even sure, if this is counting the genset, since I don't know where sensors for this is.
I've also noticed that some of these big rigs, get as much as our toad, all by itself. Ummmmmmm!
Glad to hear from an honest owner. My Cat350 in a 40 footer and towing a CR-V gets 6.6 to 6.7. I thought mine was worse than anybody's.
But, I have to agree with the guy who said that mileage was way down the list in importance. Once you pay for insurance, taxes, storage (in my case) and other maintenance expenses involved, you'll see. Kind of like buying an airplane and worrying about MPG.

If you are concerned with range on a tank of fuel, fine. If you are concerned about cost, RVing may not be for you.

We are considering a purchase of a 15 to 20 year old MH.
I am wondering what the MPG would be. Probably a 30 to 36 foot with or without slides. Driving around 60 mph and just two of us and pulling small lite truck
