Re: Ford 450 Triton V-10 Engine by Joe Chiarella
Post New Message This posting is no doubt late, but, we just purchased a 2007 Fleetwood Tioga 32 feet, v-10 Triton, 5 speed overdrive, and took it on a trial run last week. We towed a 2007 Hyundai on a tow dolly on mostly flat terrain here in Florida. We clocked 10.5 mpg while running the chassis a/c all the way. The coach has only 1200 miles on it and we're hoping the gas mileage gets better as the mileage accumulates. We pay particular attention to the tire air pressures and use the "toe/haul" transmission option, which I'm assuming will help with fuel mileage also as it keeps the transmission from "hunting gears" when a slight rise or hill comes up. As soon as I get another 1000 miles on it I will also have the wheel alignment checked, which will have an effect on fuel mileage as well, not to mention tire wear. Hope this info helps, we could use some advice also as this is our first motorhome upgrade from travel trailers.
