I know of no one who gets a fixed fuel mileage when pulling a travel trailer. Pulling into a wind will reduce your mileage regardless.

I will say that if adding 500 pounds to the weight of my trailer significantly impacts my fuel mileage; I better start looking for another truck 'cause the one I got is substantially underpowered.

With the rear kitchen loaded up, I make sure I'm 1/2 full to full on the water tank. Tank is at the front. Front end is a bit light on my trailer with no water and all the food in.
