Once we got to Amarillo we had a headwind the entire way to Page. I averaged about 13MPG and spent close to $650 round trip in gas. Another $400 for the Moomba and $350 for the houseboat (refunded to us because of the generator issues we had on board).
    13 MPG towing is REALLY good! especially with a head wind!

    I would have killed for 13mpg. We pulled 1200 miles roundtrip down to the Ozarks for Brostock one year in my Tahoe averaging 8 MPG when gas was around $4.00 a gallon.

    I used to tow my off shore boat down to destin fl. For fishing in the gulf. That was around 700 miles round trip.17mpg while towing is great, my truck doesn't get that on its own, and when I towed the off shore boat I got like 8 mpg.

    I once towed my previous boat to Greers Ferry Lake, AR from VA 2,100 miles round trip. I know, pretty stupid. Almost ashamed to admit it.
