Best fuel milage between Edge and Quad, towing?

Pulling my Travel Trailer a few years ago on a long trip, I was averaging 11.5mpg with the Quad on 60hp.
Just recently did some numbers with my Outlook on 2 (towing) and it averaged 9.5.

Could be speed changes or elevation changes.
Just wanted some feed back, thanks

I think you might have sort of confused them.

I think what you are saying and asking is:

A few years ago you used our box on the 60hp setting and averaged 11.5mpg.
You switched to a Juice with Attitude and you are now only getting 9.5mpg?

I think the confusing part was the Outlook thing.......

And you are asking why did this happen?

That is sort of a hard thing to answer. Are you comparing apples to apples?
Are you in similar type environments pulling the same trailer? Did you drive faster or slower?

I guess the only thing I could say if all things are equal is that maybe our tuning fit your truck and your driving style better for mileage? Maybe at the boost levels, rpm's, and mph we are doing more timing?

Really hard to say with the info we have now. I bet if you elaborate a little more you will get a few more answers.

What he said......

Same trailer (6500lbs) and probably same speed. Elevation was different though.

I was just trying to get some numbers.

If it wasn't for your CB issue I would still have the Quad chip today..
