Just finished a 3500 mile trip through the SW, Texas, and LA. Averaged 14.8 mpg, driving in the range of 62 - 65 mph. Ran with tires inflated 61 - 65 psi. Probably cost me a mileage penalty for being on the low end of psi, but it was worth it getting a very smooth ride and trip experience.

13 does sound low. We get 16+ when not towing and not driving into the wind, but we don't have the big cabover bed to reduce the aerodynamics of the MH. We also drive about 62mph.

We don’t have the Cab over either, I wanted the other one but my husband didn’t because he felt we would get better gas mileage without the cab. I do have confess we drive faster, need to slow down maybe will get better gas mileage and putting more miles on it may improve the mileage.
Thank you

31000 miles on a 2017W and have averaged 14.1 mpg. Have driven it to Alaska, Delaware, and Texas coast all from WY. Usually drive in the low 60's and run 76 psi in the tires.

Averaged 12.4 from OR to VT and back, 6700 miles. Ran the speed limit except in when it was greater than 70 MPH. Could definitely tell that higher MPH & climbing was reducing the MPG.


I usually get >14.0 when traveling in Willamette Valley & to the coast in OR when keeping at 55 MPH with only moderate climbs at most.
