Just returned home from the dealer - 138 miles from the lot to my house. 38 miles at 60 MPH - 42 miles at 65 MPH and the rest at 70 MPH. 3 different highways and got 9.7 mpg loaded with a fair headwind on the 70 MPH leg. On the trip up empty got 22.8 mpg. Without the headwind may have seen 10 +. The Seville is pretty tall.

A lot of it depends on how you drive. However, I'd really question anyone that says they're getting over 10 mpg with a gasser if they're driving anywhere near the speed limit and have a 30'+ 7k trailer. Maybe some of the newer rigs but even that seems darn near impossible.
I gotta agree. I have a 32 ft Zinger close to 9000 loaded up. I had a 3.5 Ecoboost that would get around 7.5 mph. I got rid of that and now have a F250 with the 6.7 diesel and it is getting 10.5 mpg.
What a night and day difference towing between the two. I never thought the bounce or back and forth sway was bad in the F150 but towing with the 250 is so stress free.Attachment 5077IMG_1287.jpg
