    Don't bother working it out ..... it'll be what it'll be. If you want mpg, leave the caravan at home wink

    A manual Merc? I didn't think anyone bought one 😉

    Our 2017 Ford Kuga 2.0 Diesel Powershift towing Swift Conqueror 480 1450kg.

    If I try to keep as near as 60mph 26-28,

    Drop down to around 55mph 30 -32,

    However if I drop my speed down to 50mph 32-34+

    As regards head winds or Cornwall any one guess ?

    Probably very low.

    We have always achieved greater MPG away from home whether towing or solo.

    I'd say its normal for a small engine towing a light caravan.
