Info on MPG with diesel compared to gas

[sanda]

My previous 30’ TT, current 31’ 5th wheel, and a 26’ Toy Hauler all get about the same mileage given the same weight and road conditions.

The 5th wheel is taller, but a TT seems to have more drag due to the distance between the truck and trailer.

I know adding a 6” longer shank has a noticeable impact on fuel economy towing a TT.

There are pros and cons to each, but I think we’re going to stay with 5th wheels and get a pop-up slide in for remote back roads camping.

You could also put your MIL in the pop up if you need to take her along.
