If i'm on a back road at 50 mph or so and no traffic I can get 37 or higher mpg, but that's ideal and rare. Towing our popup I get around 20 to 22.
All of this is when not in regen mode. If it goes into regen it will drop to around 23 mpg.
What kind of tow rating does these trucks have, and more specifically, would you feel comfortable with a 6,000 lb travel trailer out back? Going to be commuting 400 miles starting in a couple of months and this truck would seem to be ideal, assuming it could occasionally pull our rv.
