It was probably averaging around 9-10. I noticed about 13-14 in dead flat areas down to 5 on the small uphills. Like I said the tow haul activated pretty much kept it in a good RPM range where it makes power.
Not being very happy with the lack of attention to ddetailthat the technician displayed, I readjusted the hitch after I got home from work today, and I think I got it better adjusted.
I went accross the scales afterwards at a local fruit packing shed.
My front axel weight was 3390 #
Rear axle weight bwas 3270 #(total truck weight was 6660 #
Trailer axles combined was 5070 #
I know with the wife and I in, and a about a half tank of gas it its usually about 6000-6100 pounds
Empty.
