Crummy fuel economy
I towed a tag trailer 450 km down the highway at 55-60 mph and got 37 liters/100 km. (6.4 mpg). Can you get a Dodge or GM to go through that much fuel?

What did the machine weigh as transported?
What is the max load capacity of the tyres?
The implement weighs about 11000 lbs. My guess is that 2000 lbs might have gone on the truck receiver and 4500 on each of the two implement tires. The max load stamped on the tire is 11000 lbs at a max speed of 20 mph. In hindsight I should have kept my speed below 50 mph.
