First time towing with the 2017.

First time towing the boat with the 2017 DCSB Offroad. 5700 lbs all in, tongue weight of 570lbs. Used ECT, S4 and S5 - held speed for the most part (I'm not a fast driver lol! ). The engine does need rpm to get into the torque band, I didn't mind as it's quite smooth and quiet at higher rpms.
Averaged 9.8 mpg on the hilly parts and 12.4 mpg on the flatter last bit. Pics are in litres per 100 km.
Had a tire blow out - Goodyear Marathon self destructing after 9 years of dual axle turning / dragging tire abuse. Luckily had tools, Jack and spare on board. Back on the road in under 30 mins

 

Nice! It's refreshing to hear from people who know what's going on every now and then.

 

Not bad at all, Perfect size trailer boat for a midsize.
