I've been asked by Beaver C13 owners about the mileage on my C13. I tell them that I have been averaging between 7.5 and 8.5mpg. I am getting this from the Silverleaf and although I have heard rumors that this is not an accurate measure of mileage, my manual measurements are within the same range. What is the experience of the other C13 owners on the site?

PS What is the maximum boost pressure you see on the coach - I see a max of 32psi.

Re: [Country-Coach-Owners] CAT C13 Fuel Mileage Question About the same. At 55 mph - 8.5 mpg. At 70 mph - 7.5 mpg.

Dick,

Our C-13 has averaged 8.5 mpg for 18,000 miles as shown on the Cat computer when they did a computer run at the fort Myers rally. The computer print out was done for free by the Cat people. We drive at 63 mph most of the time and tow a GMC Envoy. The Silverleaf is not accurate for mpg at the present time but Cat is coming out with a correction soon.
