TC and MPG
I just sold my 5th wheel. With diesel fuel topping $7/gallon here in California, I can't see pulling a trailer at 12mpg. So, the question I have is....what can of MPG can I expect to get from my 2000...

I had a 2010 Ram CTD and now a 2018 Ram CTD. There is a big difference in fuel economy. With my Northstar Igloo I was lucky to get 12-13 mpg on the open road. Now with the 2018 I am in the 14-16 mpg range.
Well, that is due to emissions garbage on the 2010 vs the 2018. This thread was about comparing a 5ver to a TT, not an old truck to a new one with the same camper.
First I have no idea about "emissions garbage". My diesels have run clean with good mileage and both emissions and mileage have improved.
Second, this is a truck camper forum. Why would this be the place to discuss 5th wheelers or TTs? The OP has already sold his trailer and asked about TC mileage.
Ok buddy, allow me to explain what I said more clearly as it went straight over your head.
The tier III emissions on your 2010 produces worse overall fuel milage apples to apples compared to tier IV emissions on your 2018. Nothing more. Nothing less.
And second, as you put it, the OPs question was asking about comparing mileage with his 5ver to mileage with a TT. I don’t make this stuff up…
