F53 Fuel Tank Capacity

My fuel tank on my 460 F53 Chassis is 70 US Gallons.
Is that about the average size for 460 and the V10 powered units?
Just wondering!

I had a 1994 Winnebago Vectra on a Ford F53 chassis. Tank capacity was 75 gallons.

Thanks for the replies sounds like they all are about the same.
I had an old class C back in 1974. It had 45 gals and I could get 450 miles on that tank. I wish I could get that on my 1997 F53 460 ci.

I had a 99 pace arrow with v10 I have put 75 gallon in. Low fuel light had been on for a while. Good clean living pays off
