I have 3.92s & a slightly shorter tire. I tow at 65 in 7th or the first overdrive which is 2,100 rpms just into the crest of the torque range. A double axle Airstream 25' to a lighter 30' usually averages 15 to 15.2, a 25 to 30' box TT 14.0, empty truck 30 if no wind & I keep it to 60ish or 22/23 at 80. Also 22/23 around town mix.
TT in tow I'm usually working to get best economy without losing time. Wind is a big factor in regards to mpg with TTs as is will you let it fall back a lil up a grade & pick it back up on the downside or pedal down hold the same speed. What I am saying is your driving habits.
