I'd like to know what others that are driving a Class C on a Mercedes Benz Sprinter Chassis are getting. Thank you!
Just returned today from 2600 miles north, Tennesse/NW Ontario Ca. with a 17ft Lund boat @ 65-70mph +/- and had 11.8mpg for the overall trip. Southern diesel runs better than the stuff in Wisconsin and Minnesota, in MHO.

“Sunseeker 2400W 2016. I get 11-12mpg and my husband gets 12-14mpg. He drives So Dang Slow!! Makes a big difference.”

“Just returned today from 2600 miles north, Tennesse/NW Ontario Ca. with a 17ft Lund boat @ 65-70mph +/- and had 11.8mpg for the overall trip. ”

These sound like my experience with our 2012 MBS Solera. 95K miles, 12 to 13 mpg overall, not towing, very speed dependent. Have see 10 mpg and have seen 16 mpg.

Also, I believe a DPF regen cycle will drop mileage on the tank of fuel it occurs in by 1 to 2 mpg.

My biggest suggestion is to never rin Biodiesel in your Sprinter MBS, really tough to find #2 low sulfur diesel in corn belt states, so beware.
