My 2022 Ram laramie 1500 gets 7.5 mpg while towing my camper. The truck handles the camper fine. I'm using a good weight distribution hitch and utilize the haul/tow feature. What does everyone else average while towing? 7.5 seems pretty low to me. My camper is a 28' that weighs in around 6400 lbs.

Glad to hear that. I've got the 3.21 gears also.
 
22ft Passport BHS single axle, no slide out, 8ft wide. 5.7 e-torque, 3.92 gears, 4 corner air suspension. Im seeing right at 10mpg. Previous 19 big horn minue etorque and air suspension got pretty much same thing. Both mostly 55mph roads with less than 1hr on big roads with higher speed limits.
 
My trailer is a 22' bumper pull, 5,500lb's.
Travel between 60 to 65 depending on variables. I average 10 to 10½.
2022 Big Horn, 5.7 Hemi with 3.92 gearing
