My first tow
Towed for the first time in the Titan (big tow), i towed a car that weighs 3450lbs plus the Uhaul trailer that weighs 2100 lbs,it was me (200lbs) my wife(135lbs) my little girl (35lbs) my sister (150lbs) and my nephew (70lbs), it was about a 2 hour drive there going between 65-70 mph, twists and turns and several hills that went on for a good stretch. I had the tank full, zero reading on the odometer (trip A) when i got to my destination i still had over half tank and the trip A odometer read 146 miles, dropped of vehicle and came back another 140+ miles hauling just the Uhaul trailer at about 70-80 mph, i got home and the odometer read 295 miles, i still had half of a 1/4 of a tank, im still driving on the same tank and now reads 325, the little yellow light came on at 306 miles, i know i still have about 4 more gallons in the tank, so im thinking another 40-50 miles with mixed driving, not bad if i get 370 miles for one tank after i pulled that car, trailer and people one way over 2 hours and just the trailer and people back over in about 2 hours, not bad id say, before just me my wife and little girl doing a all highway trip i did over 430 miles in one tank, thats when the Titan had about 1,500 miles, now its got about 8,000............................................. .................................................. .................................................. ...... Sorry for the long post, but im surpised on how well it did on the hills, i actually forgot i was pulling anything, up the hill it was no problem 65-70 mph nice steep hills too. Thanks for reading........................................... .................................................. ......................................."Only easy day was yesterday."
