45ft Dual Slide Newell Coach Fuel Mileage
What kind of fuel mileage can be expected from a 45 ft dual slide 2000 Newell Coach with a 500 horsepower Detroit Diesel engine.

I'm going to guess around 8MPG and keep in mind it could get worse if you drive in the mountains, pull a vehicle or trailer, run into strong headwinds, and so on.I'm sure others will jump in and correct me if I'm wrong.

Depends on how fast you want to drive, use of the generator, tire pressure and valve-injector settings. Anywhere from 6 to 8.
