[QUOTE="messix, post: 833355, member: 16065"] i've got a '99 3500 long bed crewcab 7.4L, best combined mpg is 10 unloaded. towing 28' toyhauler and jeep = 10klbs or more. best mpg towing 6.5 -7. i can pull I90 at 60mph + even at vantage. i tows better and likes 70mph than 60 on the the flat,the bad is pull away power from a stop. it's hard on the engine and tranny. i won't settle for any thing less than a proper tow rig the next time. any one towing a wheeler on a trailer [avg. trail rig 3,5000 - 4,500 lbs + trailer 2,000lbs =a'bout 6,000 lbs] with any thing less than a 3/4 ton truck is asking for trouble [sure it can and has been done, and we've all drivin after a few to many insert your fav dui drink here, but its not the smartest thing to do]. p.s to get to buck meadows on manashtash rd i have to go to low range to pull the hills slow enough.
