We just did a weekend trip with our little trailer.

The family minivan gets a steady 20mog in normal use. Tires are good, everythinng is smooth.

Towing a 1300-1800 lb trailer it got about 11 mpg.

Anecdotally, that's what most people tell me; My brother-in-law's newish F150 gets 20 mpg empty and 11 mpg pulling a 1700 lb popup.

Is this observation consistant with other people's experience?
