Finally made it to Alabama (1800 miles so far). Towed great the last two days (no winds and I added a little more weight to the front of the trailer). I still plan on upgrading to an equalizer for the trip back to CA. I know several people are interested in the outcome and I will let you all know if it makes an improvement.

8-9 seems about right to me...I get 12 with my popup attached and 14 otherwise. Mileage on mine sucks in general.
