How Many Miles Per Gallon Does Your Motorhome Get?

by Jan
(Yelm, WA)




Hi,

I asked a while ago about what motorhomes get the best mpg. Now I am trying again to get more specific information.

Can people just please reply to this post with what kind of motorhome, length, motor, tranny & their mpg? As much detail as you want to give.

Please & thanks,

OK Jan your wish is my command. If anyone reading this would like to share the information on how many miles per gallon their Motorhome gets they can add the information by clicking on the "Click Here To Post Comments" link located near the bottom of this page.

Please feel free to also tell us any tips and tricks you use to increase your motorhomes fuel mileage.

What is your RVs MPG
by: mark

I have a 1985 Class C Minnie Winnie/Winnebago, 26 ft, with a 460 4 barrel carb. The best I got was in New Mexico with a 40 mile per hour tail wind pushing me. I got 13MPG. But on a flat level surface, loaded down without towing, going 60 MPH, I get on average 8 MPG.

1992 Fleetwood Bounder
by: Anonymous

1992 Fleetwood Bounder, bought July, Ford 460, 31K on the engine. 31'8" model.

Total tune up (everything that can be), put in Castrol Syntec ~expensive synthetic oil.

Drove ~6500 miles NY to Seattle & back, drove REAL easy, ~60-65mph most of the way across (not 70-75mph), and didn't floor it on hills.

Got 9.16mpg. Oil was still pretty clean after.

A lot better than I thought, was told to expect worse. I also had it loaded to the max, got onto a scale at one point. I'm sure going up Mt Rushmore in 1st gear, it was <1mpg.
