Question 2024 Dutchstar fuel economy

[Rich W.]

Well yeah. Its less complicated to write a check than just walk into my bank with a scrap piece of paper asking for their money. They really get excited when the loud bell goes off. What I don't understand is why the doors all lock when that blasted bell goes off. Now you know why I have checks.

Also a handy way to pay at self-serve camp grounds.

My lowly gas powered Canyon Star gets from 6.8-7.2 mpg constantly towing , and has for 29,000 miles.

My 2016 3710 was the same.

Well, those numbers are so good that I'm cautiously going to recommend that you get it calibrated. Unless you were going downhill all the way. . .

I think Joe Hogans numbers look right. I have several friends that have bought new coaches and they are getting better milage. I think it has to do with the new DEF systems they can dial more performance and power back in and still meet emission requirements.

Joe - what app is that? Is it something available on 24's?

 

[Joe Hogan]

The Fuelly app is a smart phone app. Installed on an iPhone. I use the free version. Works for me. Tracks miles, economy, expense, etc. The average mileage is simple calculator math.
Record each fuel stop numbers. Simple.

The real test will be going to the Rockies this summer. Don't expect similar numbers.

 

[J&JD]

If you do much traveling in the mountainous west expect to see at least a 10-12% drop from the numbers you are seeing at a minimum.

Joe, I'd saying doing good with that mileage. I finally turned over 30k mile on my 2015 and I now sometimes get 8-9, mostly 7-8. Break in is a lot of miles to get better fuel mileage, plus I'm pulling a 28' car hauler. Somedays 6-7 with wind and mountains.
