I did my first towing with my 07 CM 5.7 with TRD package yesterday. I had to deliver a car to someone about 150 miles away. Generally hilly area with one or two steep inclines.

Travel trailer wt: 2000 lbs.
Car wt: 4600 lbs.

I averaged 11.1 MPG doing 65-70 for the trip down and 13.7 for the trip back. I played with using the sport transmission to downshift on the hills to get more power or use the engine as as break. Cruising at 65-70 the truck felt like it had nothing behind it. I think I got more surprised because every time I would look back, the car I was towing was in the rear view mirror.

I'm planning on buying a trailer and ATV soon as well as some Seadoo's for the summer (it's nice being divorced) so I'm excited since apparantly, this thing tows more than sufficiently for what I'm going to use it for.
