I have 2 3.5 Ecos the 11 gets 10mpg towing through the mountains cruise set at 64. The 18 does the same routes at 10.5 mpg cruise set at 64. I have over 40k miles towing with the Ecos now and both get those averages consistently.
I never have nor will get the supposed NEED to tow so fast...part of Rving is enjoying the ride and scenery to the destination.
Yes I will avg 60mph on the 75 mph posted interstates...in 22 years of Rving NEVER had an issue...let those who aren't towing go around you it's very simple :D
I am happy at 60-65 mph in the right lane with the trucks. No lane changing, passing, or getting annoyed at the semi going 67 mph in the left lane trying to pass one doing 65 mph. I arrive at my destination relaxed and ready to have a good time, rather than tense and frustrated.
