Spotted another Maverick towing a scamp trailer camper

[WeirdUncleJerry]

My Tremor gets about 17mpg pulling my 700lb(ish) teardrop(dry weight) at 70.

It doesn't like hills. Plenty of power, but not plenty of MPG's.

This is my solution to my camping issue. The trailer was 1100 dry weight, and by the time we completed the build and added stuff to it like an AC and fridge, maybe another 300-400 pounds. Having AC while camping makes all the difference. Consistently getting 18-19mpg when hauling at 65-70mph.

What would my front wheel hybrid make on mpg while towing things like above?

As I mentioned above, I've got between 25 (strong headwind) and 42 mpg with an average 34/35. If its really hilly and I use towing mode, its more like like 28/30. I'm towing under 1000lbs and my trailer is very aerodynamic.

that's what I would expect. you can't go 60 on the interstate when it's mostly 75 (some 70) limit around my area. I mean, you can, but you'll get passed by a ton of semis to the extent it'll be a terrible, unsafe experience.

The Hybrid gets almost identical MPG as the EcoBoost while towing.

The difference is the Hybrid is working harder to do it.

The nice thing is, you'll get 2x the MPG of the EcoBoost when not towing.

I was just finishing a 5 day beach detecting/camping trip and was about to start a 7 hour trip back home, when I saw this Mav towing a scamp pull into the campground. its a 4k ecoboost and the Scamp weighs 1800lbs and she got around 24mpg. BTW, I averaged almost 34 mpg, towing 900ish lbs, on this 900 mile round trip. Love it.

Nice set up
