Towed my small ATV/quad trailer with quad loaded for about 1,200 miles - Florida to Georgia. While at the hunting camp the temperatures dropped as low as 13. Two days and 200 miles of towing in below freezing temps. showed me only 19 mpg. Much was idle, dirt , muddy, rutted puddles and rocks. Literally every water pipe in my camp broke, making me run around with quad and trailer.
The warm running there showed mileage in the 22 mpg range at about 75 mph. I think it's all good until I went 420 miles home and hand calculated.
Now the temps. were warming the whole way. I was in a hurry to watch football so hammered it down. Ran that truck, trailer and load around 80 mph and at times 85 mph. Watched the radar detecter and slowed twice for police traps on I 75.
23.5 mpg. Seriously. The faster I went the better it got and remember - I was towing probably 1/2 a ton with that trailer.
I like it. I like it a lot.
