I see you have your truck listed at 4,600-lbs. Is that with driver, full fuel, the usual junk on a certified scale? Also, what was the scaled weight of the truck, solo, loaded for camping, as well as the trailer weight (with separate tongue weight) both empt and loaded? There is some tweaking that can be done here to improve FE, and the addition of weight can be seen against solo for future predictions (what I think this is all about: work per gallon over distance).

My efforts empty and solo help offset the work the truck can do in overall fuel cost. But towing is open to adjustments 95% of those towing do not make which will help FE and road performance.

The fuel log shows above 15-mpg. All towing? Pics of rig?
