Below are the specs of the camper and weight as well as driving modes with mpg.
-Toy hauler weight empty 3180lbs
-Weight loafed 4200 plus or minus 50lbs.
-Tongue weight 510lbs
-Weight in the truck cab with me, wife, pig, gear and Grom. 725lbs
On the way from MD to Natural Bridge VA (about 200 miles) tow haul mode 70% of the time. Planning stops way ahead with very gentle acceleration. 11.4mpg average. I usually stayed between 55-65 on the highways.
-On the return trip, same driving style only it was windy, 30mph gusts so I went a little slower and also kept it in normal drive mode about 70% of the time and averaged 12.4.
I liked how it drove in tow-haul mode. Less gear hunting and better engine breaking but never went into 10th gear and obviously shifted at higher rpms even in gentle acceleration.
I did forget to mention that I topped off with Shell 93 twice.
