We drove 6,701 miles (6,195 miles towing) and got 12.3 mpg on this trip.
The total for the past 8 years is 80,018 miles driven (65,501 miles of towing) and 311 trailer set-ups.
This trip was different in that we did far fewer trailer-less excursions than in the past. The trailer was connected to the car 92.4% of the time ... which explains the drop in fuel economy.
