Maybe if you travel downhill in both directions, with a tail wind, while drafting a semi

If you plan on towing regularly, you might want to consider a diesel. You didn't mention your budget so i thought I'd throw that out there. It's no secret what brand I like .
Keep in mind any gasser will lose significant efficiency while towing. It's not uncommon to see a 20mpg half ton drop to 10mpg simply by hooking up a 3000# cargo trailer...ask me how I know
