[QUOTE="MrNoo, post: 6270438, member: 2767"] I worked out what my Isuzu did towing, 14ft Ifor + Ferguson T20 + Plough and 90kg of ballast from Pembrokeshire back to here 186 miles and managed 28mpg, mostly motorway work but was doing 65+ as the Mrs had been kicked by a horse so had to get back sharpish, so prob add anoter 5mph on. Manual here but do find that 1st is too high towing when starting off on a hill, you can drop to low range and then change up but I gather the auto is better at pulling away on a slope loaded but not driven one myself. Manually are generally better for MPG, hence why some auto's have a higher tax band, certainly the case with my old audi A3 manual, auto was more to tax a year. [/QUOTE]
