We use the motorcycle to visit our kids from the nearby RV park, when we travel to visit them.

So perhaps those air tabs might make a difference. It would be nice to get 1MPG by adding on such an item.

Yea, I hear you.
I think though there may be an option for such a monitor, but the RV factory probably does not order it. Most new cars though now have such monitors.
Perhaps Ford considers it a negative selling point for someone to test drive a new Van from a dealership and be reminded of the low gas mileage from the display.
