lancetek Posted July 17, 2023 Im new here. We bought a used NV 3500 (passenger) for our family of 8. With 6 kids, three of them being teens, our Honda Odyssey just wasnt big enough. Now we are getting adjusted to the NV but its taking some time. Its different than what we've had before of course. We are looking at options to make it better and work better for us. And dang,does anyone have any tips to get better fuel economy? This guy is worse than my Jeep WJ after I modded the heck out of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
radin2son Posted July 18, 2023 Nope. Your “people” NV is a truck first and foremost with a thirsty cargo V8. You will get roughly the same mpg no matter how and where you drive it. Towing will take its toll, but you have a great people mover and tow vehicle. 1 Local Apparent Friday reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
