The best part is that you can register it as an RV and not a Comm. vehicle.

I'm gonna guess 4-6mpg. Just a guess though.

I'm guessing 5.5/6 on the mpg. Anyone else want in the pool? LoL
That thing needs a couple of subtle De Lorean badges.
SO WANT! I've looked at these over the years and would love to pick up an old Silver Eagle to haul with. Please tell me you're bringing it to the Challenge this year.

I'm guessing 6-8, whether one driver or 20,000 pounds of additional weight.
For added fun, pull reference line for more boosts. Those ol' diesels don't care 
Hm. I'm in for 4mpg. It's an old diesel after all.
I'll take 7mpg.
I'll take 8.2 towing a trailer, which is only about 4mpg worse than my van towing a trailer. That is as long as aussie doesn't have a lead foot.
My record is 7.2 in the van, but I was in a hurry because the wife was having congestive heart failure. 85mph towing a CJ7 on a trailer isn't conducive to good fuel economy.
You bringing it to Petite? Just don't let Maroon drive. 
Just joshin' of course, he didn't crash the MR2 a couple of weeks ago so I guess he's approved.
I have nothing to offer but my jealousy.
Well, I do know a song about a bus..

Tires will be a chunk, but I will be good for several years once they are done.
More photos pending, that was a cell phone shot, have to download the camera ones.
It needs a good cleaning outside from sitting but the inside is very clean.
Challenge is looking shaky for 2011, S10 is not done and I have been busy as a two ..... Probably can't get away as I am short a couple of drivers right now anyway.
It already had Ohio Motorhome tags, and no CDL needed in Ohio
I have been around modern MCI/Prevosts and they average in the 7mpg with ISM or more modern Series60 Detroit so I think it will be in the under 6 mph towing or not.
It is awesome.
Make sure you buy yourself some RV style tire covers. UV is hell on tires.

My parents Prevost runs about 7 as well.
I'll take 6.5 mpg.
Be careful around Matthew Fox with that thing!
I seriously doubt it will know it is towing a striped down S10. ~6mpg is my guess since I'm sure the engine is tired.
Nice coach. Get into the habit of checking the oil regularly and use the recommended oil, usually straight 40 wt. They burn as bit normally and I've seen more killed by lack of or improper type of oil than anything else.
Picture update
We have a genuine need for the bus as my wife has had two open heart surgeries. When we travel with her sitting in a stationary position this causes her lower edema.
She loves to come with me and has a blast at events so we have solved the problem and will save on hotels, food and can bring everything to make our trips comfortable.
win, win.
Nice!!
The donk, 8v71 Detroit leaker
Wow, that is really impressive inside.
How does an old bus like that drive?
Awesome......You got a great deal.
