Chevy 454 gas mileage experience? | The RV Forum Community
YES YOUR MILEAGE IS LOW! I own a 1993, 34 foot Allegro Bay, my mileage runs between 7.2 & 8.2 towing a 2000 Saturn and running about 65 miles per hour. Things like how fast you drive, how much weight are you carrying, are you towing & what are you towing, what type of terrain are you driving, all factor into your mileage.
Diesel Pusher Gas Mileage - The RV Forum Community
Final cost and fuel mileage is the main reason MH mfgrs. began using the Cummins ISB6.7 medium-duty diesel engine instead of the ISL8.9 heavy-duty and larger engines. There is a set amount of BTU's in one gallon of #2 diesel fuel, the smaller engine uses less fuel, resulting in higher mileage, and produces less HP as a result.

Triton V-10 Gas Mileage - The RV Forum Community
As for V10 mileage, we have a 2008 chassis year V10 in a 35ft Winnebago. We took a 5200 mile cross country trip this year and averaged 60-66 mpg depending on traffic and terrain and averaged around 7.2 plus or minus a bit with no toad. This is based on scan gauge readings, but my actuals are a bit off due to generator usage.
1500HD 4X4 6.0L Gas Mileage — Car Forums at Edmunds.com
Being that its a heavier truck than the 1500, mileage will be affected. whether its a 2wd or 4wd also impacts weight, therefore, mileage along with driving style. Probable average 3-4 pg less than a 2wd 1500.
gas mileage on a Dodge tradesmen campervan - The RV Forum Community
Heres your answer to poor gas mileage. Poor gas mileage has nothing to do with weight, maybe a little. My first camper was a starcraft popup (3200lbs), upgraded to a 21' skyline Koala Superlite Ecocamp (3400lbs.) thinking that weight is the main factor in good gas mileage, WRONG.
