Class C performance in the mountains

Recommended Posts

Paul, sounds about right. I had a pickup with that engine and it was consistently at 9.6 - 10.0 mpg empty. Much less vehicle than what you have, same power train. 
we had a Coachman Santara Class C before the DP we have now and we never got more than 7.0 I even installed a Banks Power Pack, ran better didn’t do anything to the MPG’s.

I have found over the past 54 years and 18 Class A's, there is not more than 1.5 to 2 mpg difference between gas rig or DP.  Size, weight, HP and terrain is the average determining factor!  You found that speed (wind resistance) on a class C, makes a big difference in mpg!  Sit back and enjoy the ride, at a slower speed, you'll also get better road manners. :P
