Gasoline mpg

[BillnPenny]

I’m weighing all of my options and I’m curious what people are getting for mileage towing a fifth wheel that weighs 9000#-9500# using a truck with a large gasoline engine such as GM’s 6.0 or 6.6 liter.
Thanks!

That's a light fifth!

With a gasser frontal area is just as important as weight!

My fifth grosses at 8700# I run light carrying supplies in a double tow setup to keep pin weight down. This setup allows for my 1500 RAM to tow! 5.7L 8speed trans. 20 MPG average 13MPG average towing!

Back in 83' they made lower profile RVs!!!
All in all my choices come from a life history of trailer/RV life! And old is a choice, not a necessity!
