My mom and I were just talking about gas mileage. Back in the 70s when she had her 71 LTD she said it didn't matter how fast or how slow and not sure on pulling the camp trailer but she said they could never get over 11 mpg out of it. I guess at least it was consistant. Don't remember the engines size and doubt she does either.
