MPG
For those of you who have a DP, what kind of mpg are you getting>

Most campers put as many if not more on their tow vehicles as they do on their MH. My tow car gets 40 mpgs and the MH gets 8.7 mpgs. Depending on the trip if I drive 1000 mis in the MH I drive 1250 in the tow car so the combination gets about 25 mpgs. The longer you stay at the same CG the more miles you put on your tow car or truck. In a MH your total mpgs go up in the case of a FW it goes down.
The same people that scoff at our mpg are the same ones that think they can get 15-19 towing a big 5th wheel in their 1 ton diesel....i always remind them that even if their mpg is the same as ours, they CANT use their 5th wheel or travel trailer going down the road :D
