A lot depends on how fast you drive too Ted. And those 6.0L chevy's are thirsty. My 8.1L chev got 10 mpg, regardless of how I drove it. Empty, full, fast/slow.... always 10 mpg.

I assume that "MoHo" means 'motorhome' ... And THAT is what gets 8mpg. No?Mighty Dodge Ram said:

Yes, MoHo is our 32’ Fleetwood with the Ford V-10. And that’s 8mpg with no wind on flat ground running <65mph. And yup, my Chevy 6.0 gets 11.5mpg around town but up to 15mpg on the open road under perfect conditions. Good call on the gas station in Fair Oaks, thanks for the tip!
I paid $3.899/gal for regular in Burns, Oregon, today and I paid the same in McDermott, Nevada, tonight.

$2.79 / gal for 85 octane yesterday in Lamar, Colorado. I expect it's the last sub $3.00 fuel I'll see for a very long time...

Don’t remember where I heard it, but a Rolls Royce owner was asked how much gas his Rolls burned. He just replied, “Every drop I put in it.”
I always figured Rolls owners didn’t have anything on us pickup owners.

Good one, Mr. BC! Add in Furnace Creek and Shoshone, CA and these are the only 4 places I know with more expensive gas than here. Bridgeport usually runs $0.90 more than here so, a guess, gas is $5.76 in Bridgeport.MarkBC said:Did you move to Bridgeport or Lee Vining, Mr 3pin??

Add to that list Cambria.It has always had gas higher then most other places in Ca.ski3pin said:Good one, Mr. BC!

Last week it was 5.70+.
Ouch way too high. When we go down there I always make sure to start out with a full tank.
That will get us there and home.

If it is less than $5/gal it most certainly is not Bridgeport.MarkBC said:Did you move to Bridgeport or Lee Vining, Mr 3pin??

Is there a gas station in Lucia? I thought I remembered seeing the highest price gas ever there back in 2002.Casa Escarlata Robles Too said:
There's one in Gorda/Ragged Point then Cambria.
I think since the Inn at Lucia has been destroyed in
a fire the gas station is closed.
In all these years of going to that area , I don't see why the gas is so much
higher in price then say Big Sur. Cambria isn't that far from Morro Bay or SLO.
