If that is the engine you have it does get good milage in that size coach. tireman62075 • View posts nokomis, il New Member Joined: 09/18/2009 View Profile Offline Posted: 04/16/12 05:58pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I have 2003 newmar kountry star w/ 300hp ISB. average 9 mpg driving 60 mph.

Not knowing the year but I'm guessing yourr HP/wt ratio is fairly favorable.

Sorry, I know there are a lot of gripes, but this is getting ridiculous. 4 whopping cylinders on Toyota RV's. Talk about great getting good MPG. Also I have a very light foot on the pedal. I followed some MPG advice on Livingpress.com and I now get 22 MPG! Not bad for a home on wheels.
