Fifth wheel vs toy hauler weight and mpgs
I was curious on some real world experience on the difference in MPGs between a lighter bumper pull and a fifth wheel toy hauler. I first bought a 27 foot bumper pull that was marked as 5,800 pound...

Yeah with a hemi, I can totally see that. It's a strong engine, but not made for pulling a lot. Surprised that a same size fifth wheel would get much worse mileage.
I do pull mountain passes in Montana. One trip I pull 3 of them, one of them is over 7,000 feet in elevation (it's a long gradual pull).
I just worry about pulling the trigger and being irritated on my first trip.
Im from MT and tow a Work and Play 30FBW with a hemi at 18,500 gross combined.
A duramax will be fine towing within its capacity.
