Are you reporting that you get 25 mpg while towing that trailer and loaded with all that gear as shown in the picture?

Not loaded like that. I only got 18 miles on that particular trip due to the headwind on the Grapevine. From my front door to Hobie and back it's almost exactly 1000 miles. I fill up with Biodiesel in Santa Cruz, then top off in Santa Barbara, make it to Hobie, load up, then make it to Santa Barbara to top off for the trip home. I usually get 700 to 800 miles out of a tank depending on conditions and load. A double stack cat trailer or even that car hauler on the back and nothing much changes. Windage from loading the lumber rack and quality of the Biodiesel are what kills mileage on this beast, though I hardly ever get less than 17mpg. And, there is never any shortage of power. 280HP 790ftlbs of torque.
