No problem in my AWD Cayenne.
Thought you were the big shot with two BMWs.
Repo'd eh?
If I had two BMW that were repossessed how could I get a Porsche
Cayenne? I do have a Z4, too, if you really must know.
I'd thought about getting a Z4 to take back and forth to the golf
course, rather than that big
truck. Seems like I'd save a lot on fuel.
You would save a ton of fuel.

Probably not that much, he has a newer diesel, and probably gets 22 mpg or
so on the highway.

On purely interstate travel, you are right on the money.

Towing, or not?

NOT!

When I attach 10000 lbs, the mileage drops to about 12 mpg.

That's not bad. Best I can hope for is about 9. I have about 14k and my
mileage continues to improve.


I'm pushing 60K now, so I don't expect a lot of improvement. That's still 50% better than I got with
the 4Runner pulling about 3500lbs. Can't bitch too much. It won't be long before my wife has this
trailer up to 14000 the way she's going.


Watch the long long long trailer with Lucy and Desi. You'll get a kick
out of it.
