I towed a 2 axle trailer all over the US going to car shows to sell parts with a 1970 442 with a 350 in it and later with a 71 Vista Cruiser station wagon. Both did extremely well towing. I got 20MPG with the wagon towing. I never checked the MPG with out the trailer but it was impressive! I could go from Indianapolis to Oil City PA on a tank! 2 tanks full to Long Island NY. I had a guy want to trade me the wagon for a 2 year old Dodge deisel truck. After doing the calculations for oil and fuel mileage plates etc, I told him no thanks! The wagon operated at a much lower cost. You should have seen that car snatch my 6000+lb steamboat out of a gravel boat ramp. Everone who saw it said "I would have never thought it would do it". That wagon is the best "truck" I ever owned! I had a wrecked 72 cutlass that I pulled a stuck 24ft mack flat bed with an implement trailer with a 67 442 on it out of the mud. That got heads shaking too! Car was smashed in the rear hard so I had to tow the truck out backwards. The truck driver was speechless! I used that car for pulling stuff around the farm until I got my 10-20.
