    You bone head, stickytaco, you take the gallons into the miles driven. Equals mpg. Been doing this 65 years. End of dealing with the doubting thomases.

    Hate to break it to you but unless you were coasting downhill for a lot of the trip your math is off. No need to get butthurt and start calling people names, we all make mistakes.

    Reading the outlandish claims followed by the subsequent staunch defenses might make me an "asshole Thomas" based on the ideas rolling through my head as I read the posts.

    I'm lucky go get 17 mpg's empty... I don't think theres a current truck on the market that'll see mpg's like that while towing.

    Just rented this 24ft because the girlfriend is too pregnant to tent camp. He supplied a weight distribution and sway control accessories. Along with the brake control it towed well on stock suspension20180607_120129.jpg

    The TC temps are going to be the hottest . The actual pan temp will be lower.

    Yup. It makes for a nice early warning vs monitoring the pan temp (both are programmed into my ultragauge).
