bhall 115 Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 I get the same mileage on my 2015 2500HD Gasser towing the 3300lb. (9990lb. gvw) dump trailer empty and loaded as I do with my 5th wheel. I was hoping for better mileage since it was empty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stockboys10 2 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 MPG numbers may change a bit, truck is new only 3500 miles, 1800 towing no real long hauls but so far here is where we stand. What you have (i.e. Class A, TT, 5th wheel): 30 TTIf you're towing (so TT or 5th wheel) how heavy is it: 9500 ~If you tow, what is your tow vehicle: 2014 Ram 2500 Diesel 4x4Gas mileage: 13.8 mpg towing with golf cart in bed, 23.5 not towing (I am really light on the pedal, you dont want to be behind me)Do you like it, love it or hate it: TT - love, Truck LoveIf you'd like to make a change, change to what and why: Would love to have the long bed but the deal on the 6.5 bed was too good to pass up, Eventually want a 5th wheel 36' ish.... But only have had the TT for 8 months so not time to upgrade yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted June 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 This is very interesting to me: From before: What you have now: 6 more feet and 2,300 lbs and no change in fuel economy. I always chuckle when I read about people not carrying water because of what it weighs and how it'll affect their MPGs. :) True. Guess one should fill up the fresh water tank and see what type of MPG they actually get. I'm just happy that we didn't drop to 5 MPG. Mercy.... that's some really good mpg. I know, right!! Great MPG plus it's got a lot of power. Tom has definite "truck envy" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
