2006 dodge ram 2500 (not dually) cummins mega cab short bed, towing 28' champion trailer loaded with dragster and scooter. weight bars 4 wheel trailer brakes prodigy brake controller.

phila to florida and back 70mph average speed 14 mpg

never downshifted except to pass. easy to drive,

towed same trailer phila ohio with 2004 dodge 2500 regular cab 5.7hemi, did not like hills as much, but as you can see we travel at 70 or more, mileage 10 to 12mpg not as good on highway as truck is probably 1000lbs lighter than diesel
