Ah hah, EIGHT to ten. I can buy that maybe with eggs under the throttle and
down hill; eight. Not ten.
When I saw 7 1/2 it was from Milwaukee around Lake MI in the fall of the year.
NO grades mostly two lane much of it under 55. In PA on old hwys and some 8
percent grades as little as 4 1/2.
Didja ever check your odometer with the mile sticks?

Well just David Beatty or me and I will beg the difference. David got
somewhere between 8 and 10 mpg when we drove his rig back from Arizona. Now
don't ask me why we get such good gas milage maybe because we do not put our
foot down on the pedal as hard as others due?

Maybe you're not lying, maybe your speedo is off and you are showing more
miles than you are really covering or you had a serious tail wind. I have two
3208 vehicles, one with a stick and 24k, 42k with the trailer and the bird.
Fresh engines the truck even has overdrive on top. Best I have seen is 71/2.
However I realize mileage talk is like fishing stories. MY speedos are dead
nuts and I average several fillups before I come to a conclusion on my figures.
No motor home as big and heavy as a bird gets 10 period.

I just want to rub it in an say when Dave Beaty and I came back from
Denver this year we got over 10mpg and we wern't even trying to
conserve fuel. Owell sence I'm part Scotch that will suit me fine. But
on my next trip to California I'm going to get say 15 MPG? What a
dreamer. Jon
