Thought we could use a collective thread of what towing results folks are getting.
I’ll start with a short first trip yesterday. I towed the boat approximately 37 miles in a 50/50 mix of highway driving (60-80 mph) and hwy route (40-60 mph). For those 37 miles, I lost 57 miles of all purpose miles — my range went from 196 to 139 all purpose miles.
Boat weight with fuel is 1,290 lbs, plus several hundred for the trailer. As expected, it’s the aero more than weight that impacts the range, but overall I thought the results were acceptable.
