Another long use of the Power Boost generator.

[Atlee]

Spent a long Memorial Day Weekend with friends down in southwest Virginia. No electricity for all of us RV'ers, so generators were in order. All I needed to do was plug the TT's shore power cord into the truck. Spent 91 hours hooked up. virtually no heavy electrical draws for me.

I stopped and filled up with gas at a convenience store 12.5 miles from where we were staying. I filled up at the same store on the way home. Used 9.462 gallons over 91 hours.

Strictly towing from Richmond, VA to Stuart, VA I got a hand calculated 10.49 mpg.

My truck is an XLT PB, 4x4, SuperCrew w/ 6.5' box. 1645# CC. I pull a Coachmen Freedom Express 20SE, GVWR of 6,000# and 24.5' long, with no slides.

Thanks for posting this info.
It would be nice if the display could put some stats about generator usage history. Like engine and generator time and fuel usage with watts/amps used.
Sounds like you have a nice set up with payload and the right size/weight travel trailer.

That is excellent ?
Plus the pb is much quieter than most
Ford really misses the boat on advertisement on just how good this setup is
I am remissed I could not find one in 22
Thank you for sharing

I just wish Ford had put the HDPP under the PB. That would help a lot. The PB's are somewhat cargo capacity challenged.

Totally agree about having the generator run time, fuel usage etc available.
