The mileage was not great but that had to do with my injectors and the fact that my trailer has no bubble or wedge up front it's flat wish it was a goose neck. I get about 2-3 mpg better towing the longer heavier horse trailer. Worst mileage was on way down with high winds most of the way 10.2. Best was 12.85 winds were blowing both ways due to the storms etc. But a lot less on sat on the way home. Left tuesday mid afternoon with high winds. difference between the winds was 14psi almost whole way down minus hills and home was 6-8psi at same speed.
what size sticks ya running with that?
