| Motor Homes and fuel economy don't always go together. When the general public thinks of fuel saving vehicles and vehicles that promote a green way of life, the RV and motor home industry actually are at the bottom of the list of economical ways to travel. Motor homes are motorized vehicles that motivated travelers use for camping and recreational activites. Traveling by road is a special way to enjoy the outdoors. It brings a unique set of advantages to the table that no other form of travel brings. Freedom to see and enjoy the open road with no strings attached. With a motor home, the only line you'll ever wait in may be a traffic line in a heavily populated area or busy highway. The motor home experience puts you much closer to nature and gives travelers families the benefit of enjoying thousands of campsites and campgrounds across the country. The recreational activity of traveling around the country on the open road has taken a hit in recent years. Gas prices have broken records that have not only hit the average driver, they have adversely affected the motor home industry and the distance motor home owners are willing to travel. A typical motor home can average anywhere from 6 to 8 miles per gallon, this is far from economical in this day and age. Check out our RV fuel cost calculator and see how much it costs to drive your motor home. When your vehicle gets mileage at this level, you need to do everything in your power to save money and gas or diesel whenever you can. There are numerous ways to keep your motor home at the top of its game when it comes to going green and saving fuel.

| The motor home needs to be maintained in a manner that will actually pay you back by the mile. Many motor home accessories are available that are lightweight to ease the overall weight of the vehicle... as a matter of fact, if you can do without it, maybe you shouldn't take it. Most of use have heard the tire pressure advice before, but here it is again... improper tire pressure costs you money. Under-inflated tires can reduce fuel mileage by 3 to 5 percent depending on just how much air is lacking. Over-inflated tires will wear prematurely but that's a whole other topic. Always use the recommended motor oil, this can improve fuel economy by up to 2 percent and modern synthetic oil, although it costs a bit more, is even better for saving fuel. A proper tune-up makes your motor home engine much more efficient overall, this includes a fresh air cleaner, fresh oil, and a properly functioning emissions system. Not only can proper parts, accessories, and tuning keep your motor home performing well, how about your driving techniques? Excessive idling of the engine is a waste of fuel, hence a waste of money. If you're stuck in a traffic situation for more than a few minutes, shut the engine down. Your lead foot can also be costing you money, accelerating in a reasonable fashion is also a way to cut costs. Then there is your cruise speed. Studies show that every 5 miles per hour over 60 mph can cost you as much as 10 cents addition per gallon. Now think back to the last time you where cruising at 70 or 75 mph and you do the math. Last but not least, your cruise control is your friend, not only does it make life easier, it also makes your motor home more gas-pump friendly.
