Ate a tank of fuel on the way out against the wind and barely a third of a tank coming home with no wind.

FYI..
Mike Harris one of our Impala SS Racers from Ohio
He tows with a Chevy Pickup with a 4.8L engine, open trailer, car and family.
He has no problem pulling over Pennsylvania and New York mountains.
Though on some inclines he barely hits the 65mph speed limits.
Otherwise the engine and trans are doing fine and gets good mileage.
