27' 1988 Class C (11K lbs), 460cid, 4BBL; towing 3 jet skiis (standup, 2 seater, 3 seater, +40 extra gallons of fuel) @ 60-65mph = 6.5 MPG.
Same rig towing a 16' enclosed trailer with 4 ATVs & 1 Motorcycle +25 extra gallons of fuel), about 4000lbs @ 60-65mph = 6 MPG.
By itself without either trailer, I can get about 7.5 MPG.
Generator use (for roof A/C) doesn't seem to make a measurable difference, but numbers can vary up or down by 0.5-1.0 depending on wind.
