Had a 04 4x4 with Hemi, pulling 26 foot enclosed on flat Mich. roads, 8-10 is the max I ever got. Low teens is dreaming.



I agree. 03 hemi with 24 foot enclosed about 10 if you baby it. closer to 8-9 mpg.

That's a nice looking duallie, congrats on the new aquisition

I haven't towed with my 3/4 ton ('03 longbed hemi), don't have a trailer yet...am not expecting good fuel economy, it just ain't gonna happen (and that isn't why I got it).

I really think you are going to want to "soup it up" or gear lower with a camper on it and an enclosed behind it.

It has 4.10's and I got a superchips programmer for it. Obviously putting some exhaust on it. Thinking about headers with magnaflows. I didnt buy it for milage but empty on my way home @70+ mph on the four lane it got 13-14 av. mpg
