Fuel mileage while towing camper.

[Arthur W]

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.

My 2019 Ram has a 5.7 Hemi, 3.92 Rear End, and gets 8.0 - 8.5 MPG, towing our camper in Tow/Haul Mode. Our Camper is a 2017 Winnebago Minnie 2500RL weighs around 6400-6500, about 29 feet Hitch to Rear Bumper. I'm using a Curt Equalizer 10,000# Hitch. I have an Airlift Wireless One 50# Combo for my Rear Spring Lift and Stabilizer. Works good, usually have it set at 25#. If it's Windy, I boost it to 30-35# (That's the highest air pressure I've ever had to use to control sway.) When Not towing, I drop the Air Pressure down to the minimum 5#. When Not towing I get around 17 MPG, but have gotten 22 MPG if I behave (55 MPH or so). I have 106,000 miles on my truck.
