This year cost of gas Ford V10

[ct78barnes]

A lot of post asking for real world numbers and mpg of the Ford V10 so hear goes. We drove 5,241 miles in 2013 from March 31 till Oct 31 2013 we used 744.9 gallons of gas at a cost of 2,522 dollars. The high for gas was 355.9 and the lowest was 3.09. we averaged around 7.2 miles per gallon. Some tanks we got 7.5 and the best was 7.8. We have a 36 ft coach and tow a Trailblazer that is around 4,600 pounds.It is on 22.5 wheels and a 22,500 pound rail. Hope this helps

I'm not where I can pull the numbers right now but that is very close to the mileage and fuel cost on my Cummins ISC diesel. I plan on fuel cost of 50 cents per mile, and normally have a few cents left over.

8.0 mpg for lots of secondary roads and light terrain. 9.1 mpg on mainly smooth flat hwy. 2003 29B Minnie v10 triton light stowage for 3 and 4 day trips. I'm happy to get 8.5+ in Minnesota.
