WOW! 3 or 4mpg! I've never driven to California, I suppose the elevations are dropping your MPG that low? I was bumming about 12mpg for my recent drive to Badlands with Macan. How much weight are you pulling?

Thanks!

Air suspension is very useful for hitching trailer.

Yeah, air suspension has been mentioned to me a few times lately, totally makes sense.

Thank you!

That wouldn’t be the avg of the tank. That would be the snapshot of the real time mpg while pulling hard.
In my experience I get high teens towing any distance. I get low 20s towing nothing.
