1977 F150 . . . had replaced the 300 6 banger with a rebuilt 352 windsor.
We towed our first trailer to Alaska with a 19-gallon gas tank and no extra 5 gallon cans. Made it fine, but filled up every time we neared 1/2 empty and saw a gas station. Averaged just under 13 MPG over the entire 10,000-mile trip. Most expensive gas on the trip was on the BC part of the Alaska Highway at Muncho Lake.
