2017 Ford Raptor Towing MPG Review

I am confused as to how much weight they were towing. They state that "in the trailer we have 7,000lbs" instead of saying that the combination weighs 7,000lbs. Also, after weighing the rig they have put on the screen they put a note on the screen saying that the GCWR is 14,080lbs. Why would they give us the GCWR and not the actual GCW at that point? I think that they meant to say that the GCW was 14,080lbs. It looks to me like the trailer weighs closer to 8,000lbs than 7,000. Not that it makes a whole lot of difference if you are not in a stop and go situation but still they ought to report that actual trailer weight. I am sure that they weight police will soon be all over this one since a Raptor is only rated to carry 1,200lbs and those are two pretty good sized guys inside in addition to the tongue weight.

The earlier comment about the wind sock was good. It was not only present, it was alomost straight out. Wind could definitely have been a factor. Still not bad milage for what it is. It is always nice if your toys can be functional as well as fun.
