Looking your model up it appears you have a 400 hp Cat and the Monaco has a 400 hp Cummins. I hope the Cummins does that well.
Yes, we have the Cat. I am happy with the mpg we are getting with it. Pretty much drive 65 to 68 with it. Did not get any better mpg with my 450 due to the 430 gears in the differential. The only thing I would tell you to check on the Cummins is to make sure it is not the engine that had wrist pin issues. They had an issue where the pin was not properly made and would grenade the engine. Not sure what engine or what years, but probably an easy google search.
