Oh my!!!
As if I wasn't already sold on this truck, my experiences of the last 10 days have absolutely sold me on the D-Max.
1100 miles on I-15 towing a 17' drift boat @ 75 mph on the way to Montana.
About 900 miles in and around Montana. Up and down little mountain roads.
1250 miles on I-15 towing the same boat @ 85 mph on the way home from Montana last night and this morning.
While this is a light boat and tailer, mileage was within a 1 mpg of what I get unloaded at those speeds.
My buddy probably put it best when he said "I would have bet you that there wasn't a trailer back there..."
