Default Re: trailering concerns

I towed mine home from the shop yesterday and was suprised when I monitored my gas mileage how much it dropped. It's a 07 Chevy Silverado 4.8 liter V8. I usually get 16.8 mpg normal driving highway and city without the boat. Towing the boat down the interstate and through town 45 miles yesterday my mileage dropped to 10.7 mpg. Huge drop, point being I disagree that the boat is light, for a 20' boat that thing is heavy, and built like a tank just the way I like it. I'd get brakes or a new tow vehicle.
