Pulled boats for many years, now have a Rockwood Minilite 2014s. Pulled by Ford F150 Lariat. Gas mileage went from 16 mpg to 8mpg. Just want to see if this is about the average drop in mpg. Don't see ...
I plan all my trips at 9mpg. Usually ill get 10-11mpg but I seem to always get that nasty head wind on the return trip lol... so it works itself out. Either way I stop every 180 miles for fuel so i dont dip below 1/4 tank(my truck is 26gallon capacity)
but like someone said already, the best way to save fuel is lift your foot off the pedal some. Its surprising how much a difference 5mph makes.
