I appreciate all your input but I have to tell you I don't usually tow that trailer anywhere unless I am going camping. It is just too expensive. At $3.00 a gallon and 12 mpg it cost $25 per 100 miles to tow it. Testing is usually done when I am traveling for any other reason. I used to average 12 mpg towing this trailer with a Toyota 4 Runner. Same engine my truck has but it was normally aspirated. The 3.5 L V-6 in the 4 Runner produced 270 HP.
The 3.5 L in the Ford F-150 has twin turbo chargers, and produces 365 HP and 420 ft Lbs of torque. If I can best 12 MPG I will be happy with it. Even if I can do the same I will be happy with it. We are going to sell the trailer in a year or two as we are looking to buy a 5th wheel. That will be a whole new towing paradigm. But in the mean time we shall see what we can do with Apex. We are traveling to Roper Lake State Park in Arizona on June 19th so I am trying to get ready for that.
