You'll have to watch it, or Fudge will have you tow him too, to save fuel... :lol:

Saying that...my 2.8 towing a trailer with a shorty on it, still uses less fuel than my 2.0i's used to... :shock:

so could be a plan, and split your derv costs Ratcav! 8) 8) 8)

I reckon even towing both fronties I can still return 25+mpg in the 2.8 ... mind I would have to keep remembering they are there and not put my foot down.
