BTW, average was 8.1 MPG without towing and running about 62 - 65 MPH at 2100 RPM.

Dave, any chance the passenger's seat pedestal may have been installed backwards? Some have a slight tilt to them to make the front of the seat slightly higher, and if reversed that could make the front lower. I'm not sure if that's even possible with your model. You may be able to compare to driver's seat if both are similar (except maybe right versus left hand).

It's a little surprising that a motorhome as large and heavy as yours has approximately the same overall gearing as the much-smaller Axis/Vegas. It confirms that the Axis/Vegas could get by with a V8, or with the V10 and taller gearing.
