New Serrano Driver

Just purchased our 2012 Thor Serrano 34M the end of 2011. Haven't ran a tank of fuel through it yet. Hope it gets the tested mileage of 13.2 mph. Will let you know how the Maxxforce engines performs. If there are other Serrano RVer's let me know what mph you're getting. Thanks!

Nice looking coach. I'd be interested in hearing how the 13 mpg thing works out for you.
You need to run about 4 tanks of fuel through it and log every gallon and every mile. That's the only way you will get a correct answer on the mileage.
I get about 7.1 mpg based on fuel used for 60,000 miles on a gas 8.1 engine 36' class A.
Some days are good, some days are bad.

Congrats on the new coach. When I drove my 31V from Montreal to Halifax we averaged about 13.5 MPG I think it was, it was close to that anyway, at a cost of $350 for the trip, average price was $1.35/ltr. We felt that was pretty good considering we drove across 1/3 of the country. We got better milage in Quebec, flater, than in New Brunswick or Nova Scotia, hillier. This was the first time I'd ever driven anything that large. I, and my wife, found it quite easy. We've only had it out for day trips since we picked it up in Dec.
Safe travels,
Stewart
