Classified Rating: 100% (2) | Re: Fuel Mileage when hauling enclosed trailer Thats Actually Pretty Good Gas Mileage For A 6.0l CHEV Pulling A Trailer. Cold Air Kit Will Help A Little, And A Chip Would Probably Help A Little Too......... We've Put Lots In And Both Items Really Doo Help With Power And Most Claim Gas Mileage Increases Too.

| Re: Fuel Mileage when hauling enclosed trailer We did a trip a few years ago and I had my Duramax with a deck and a 2 place trailer. The other rig was a Duramax with a 4 place enclosed trailer. We ran very colse to the speed limit to McBride and back and both rigs got 13 mpg.

| Re: Fuel Mileage when hauling enclosed trailer The Concorde... Loaded Heavy & pulling a 4/enclosed heavy also. Down South and back awhile ago.... getting around 10 +/- MPG. (as per electronic meter). This was also done with a lead foot..... SD not the best mileage out there.
