I got 11.1 MPG with my 9'4" tall, 7' wide trailer with a worst tank average of 8.5.
With my 11' 2" tall, 8' wide trailer I now get 8.5 MPG with a worst tank of 6.8.
The 6.8 would have been worse but I slowed from 68 to 60 to make sure I was able to get to the next gas station. Frontal area is the difference in average mpg, weight the difference in worst tank (mountains + high speed + heavy = bad)
