Pro Tips for Towing Fuel Cost Increase
- Fuel economy reduction from towing varies significantly based on trailer weight, aerodynamics, and speed — a heavier or less aerodynamic trailer at highway speed sees a larger percentage impact.
- Use your own observed fuel economy difference while towing versus not towing for a more accurate personal estimate than a generic percentage.
Common Towing Fuel Cost Increase Mistakes to Avoid
- Using a generic towing fuel-economy-impact percentage without adjusting for your specific trailer's weight and aerodynamics, which significantly affect the real impact.
