zero Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Ironically, I just found this motorhome magazine in my 1984 Datsun RV when I was cleaning it out to sell it. Some guy came by with a pocket full of cash yesterday and bought it. November - 2005 road-test for the Winnebago View 24 footer with the VW 2.7 liter diesel. Interesting to see a real road test. It got 15.9 MPG as a highway average at speeds 55-70 MPH 2.7 liter turbo diesel is rated 154 HP @ 3400 RPM and 243 lb. ft. torque @ 1600-2400 RPM. 0-60 MPH - 22.2 seconds. 40-60 MPH - 12.9 seconds. Test weight - no supplies or passengers - 9,340 lbs. Price: $84,536 Looking at these figures - I think we Toyota owners are doing ;pretty good and I'm sure spend less dollars per mile of travel.

Maineah Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Can't be all bad they still make them half again as roomy with a 3L and the same mileage. The mileage is not bad either considering they weight a ton and a half more, best I did with my Toy was 13-14 at highway speeds it saw 70 once on a long downhill. The diesel by the way is a MB. And the Sprinter 2.7L box truck gets around 22 MPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
