Jim,

Thanks for the comments on fuel economy. Those are pretty much the standard tips. You are getting about 2 mpg above what is typical for that coach so it is working for you. I am convinced that the biggest improvements to mpg for our big motorhomes is to make them more aerodynamic and drive 55 while using the techniques that you mentioned. I am removing the AC units and other junk from the roof of my Alfa. Also putting on fender skirts and a boat tail. Some awnings will be removed and other will have fairings. You probably saw a picture of my Alfa earlier in this thread. My boat tail will no be like the one photoshoped on my photo. My hope is to get a consistent 11 mpg from my Cummins ISC360.

Randy
