Replying to: andys2 (Nov 18, 2007 5:43 am) I believe that you will get the same milage as the older LEs because in prior years the LE's all had the towing package (with the lower gears)   I consistently get 13.5mpg in the city with my 04 LE w/towing package and I don't drive gently.   On the highway I'll pull about 17-18mpg doing 70-75mph.   Towing 10,000-11,000lb tri-axle boat trailer at 67mph with AC on I get 10.5mpg from NYC up to Lake George.   -mike Replies to this message: andys2 (Nov 18, 2007 6:46 pm) paisan (Nov 18, 2007 6:52 pm)

i have a '07 armada with 4wd -- no hitch. i think it was a rental, so probably no tow package.? i have a 29' bayliner with 2 i/o engines, and guesstimate it about 8000#. i only need to tow the boat 10 miles from page to lake powell (downhill) and 10 miles back (uphill). do i need the "trailer package" (if you can even do that aftermarket, or can i get by alright with a heavy duty hitch alone -- perhaps wieght distribution type? thanks Replies to this message: paisan (Feb 15, 2008 4:24 pm)

Replying to: boots1933 (Feb 15, 2008 12:30 pm) 10 miles with a hitch and taking it real easy you should be fine. The trailer package can't be done aftermarket cause it's a different axle ratio and trans cooler, and trans temp gauge. But 10 miles would be ok if you asked me.   -mike Motorsports and Modifications Host
