    Real world towing MPG 23 expedition TERRIBLE

    if you have larger diameter tires, I’d guess it’s probably staying in a lower gear? My ‘19 with 3.73 final gear towing 24’ enclosed 7000lbs averages 9.5mpg going 70-75mph.

    2019 Platinum tow setup with enclosed car hauler

    Without the WDH, expedition sways quite a bit more when passing semis, and also going over dips you can really feel the weight transfer. On the excursion… it still improved but wasn’t as noticeable.

    4th Gen Brakes Q&A

    I recently installed the PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow front brake rotor and pad kit. Much better bite then the stock pads and gives off slightly less brake dust. Zero noise and stopping with a trailer is much better. Came with drilled and slotted rotors.
