I get between 18-19 mpg around town, 20 mpg on the highway, manual transaxle camper, no P/S, A/C on 95% of the time 70 mph on the highway with the cruise control on. I have checked my odometer various ways and I calculate the mileage on every fill-up I have done since May 2000. Good luck, Tim BTW, I'll be cruising up I-95 tonight to Darlington SC in my Wanderlodge with its 'unsafe' copper brake and fuel lines; consider this post fair warning and pull to the side if I try and pass you.:>) Oh yeah, it gets 8-mpg, 7-mpg if you run the genset while underway. Goldibox gets great mileage when I tow her behind the 'bird.:>)) Edward Maglott <emaglott@BUNCOMBE.MAIN.NC.US> wrote: Maybe this is the real prevarication?
