Re: ?? Mileage towing ??
[ QUOTE ]
Mileage question gets asked quite a bit! With my "04" F350 6.0L diesel I get 16.7 to 17.4 (hand calc.) unloaded. With any trailer wiring hooked into the truck, mileage drops between 9.5 to 10, doesn't matter the weight. Sorry to hi-jack the thread but does any one know which wire in the trailer wire harness tells the computer to automatically drop the fuel mileage?

I am with kuttysark40. I just returned from a trip to the beach, pulling 28ft travel trailor 9000lbs +/-. Trip down 10.49mpg, trip back up 9.68. Drove a little faster coming home 75-80 vs 65-70 going. Normally empty I get 16.5 - 17.5 mpg.
