Fuel mileage M210rb?

Hi folks, picking up an M210rb Monday.
Pulling with a 1500 Chevy gas truck.
Anyone with this similar setup want to share their mpg?
Thanks in advance!

Pulling an RV is like attaching a sail to the back of your truck. In most cases its not the weight, its the wind resistance that gets you at highway speeds. Your going to see single digits for MPGs.

Not your setup but . . . I pull a 2020 NT 21RBSS (very similar to your 210RB) with an '08 F150 V8 and now with a 19 F150 3.5 EcoBoost. I tow @ 65mph and got/get between 9 and 12mpg.
I expect your mileage will be in the same range depending on your speeds and road conditions (mountains, flatland ext.)

I know this is an old thread but I have the same setup as you do a 2023 Mallard M210RB that I towing behind my 2024 GMC Sierra Crew cab with the 5.3L. I get 20plus mpg when just driving (freeway) but I'm lucky to get 10mpg when towing. I just took a small trip to Falling Waters campground using I-10 the whole way. I got near 9mpg going there doing 65mph. Coming back I saw 8mpg or as low as 7.6mpg if I pushed it up to 70mph.
On a trip this summer to Indian Harbour, Nova Scotia from Sunbury, OH I saw gas milage from 7.6 to 9.1 I always drove 65 or less. I was concerned there was an issue but I guess it's just the nature of the beast. I did cut way back on what equipment I was carrying but that didn't seem to improve my gas mileage.
