I towed a small car 500 miles on a tow dolly last week. Got about 16 mpg thru hills, interstate and back roads. Plenty of power and no complaints. The whole set up was probably under 1800 lbs I'd guess. My Sprinter basically did the same with the same rig.
I found it towed better and the mileage went up if I didn't put it in the Tow Mode!

Knob hugeness...
Promaster General Discussion ForumI find that our HVAC switches are ridiculously large. I'm thinking FCA thinks PM drivers are fumble-fingered. Or perhaps extremely near-sighted. I jest. I suspect they were trying to fill up what would otherwise be an empty space. Presumably, marketing thought it would be less stylish and...- 61
