First tow with hybrid

[csuh13]

Made the 300 mile trek to pick up my daughter at college and clean out her apartment for the summer. The trip there I got 40 mpg, all freeway running 75-80 the whole way in slippery mode.

The trip back I was towing an 8ft U-Haul open trailer full of stuff and did 25 mpg in tow/haul mode. I thought that was GREAT since my old 2006 Chevy Colorado could only manage 10 mpg doing that.

My experience with EB towing (no 4K tow package) has been 19mpg pulling a 6x10 cargo trailer, about 1600lbs all in, driving between 65-70mph.

I have no tow package. Just the Ford hitch. This load was probably close to 2000 with the trailer and stuff included. I'm pretty pleased overall. Now I can start building that teardrop trailer

Thanks for sharing with us Mike! Glad to hear you are loving your Maverick.
