If my RV was fixed to only drive 60 - 63 mph max; and get 10 mpg; I would gladly pay $50/per trip to be able to drive 75 - 78 mpg getting only 7.5 - 8 mpg.

If for no other reason, I have found it safer passing trucks 70% of the time versus being passed by trucks 70% of the time.

I NEVER calculate my actual MPG anymore, because it will not mean anything. Who cares what the exact cost / kwh is when it is 100 degrees outside? You bought that house knowing the square footage and the AC requirements.

That is my way of saying it is hard to imagine that Ford Engineering has not already maximized F-53 v10 gas performance for the masses of conditions. I am thankful I can drive the speed limit.
