I think my ND to NY trip was supposed to be 32 hours . Ended up using 5 tanks on the Ford Exploder.

I'm getting 11.3 MPG with the boat behind me doing 68 MPH. Doing a little math it'll take me about 95 gallons of gas to get to GA.

Do you have the 6.0 2500 for a truck? I swear that people say those trucks get the same gas mileage towing or not.

Idk jehler some of the early 2000s diesels can get mpg in the high teens even 20 on the highway. Then add something smaller like a boat behind that and you're not even feeling it back there. Compared the gassers where you can really feel the drag and have to get into the pedal more. That's where I was coming from but I may be wrong.
