First tow with 7.3

[House]

Howdy. Just thought I'd give a quick review of my first tow with my 2022 7.3.
Had just under 600 miles and was hooked up to my 2200 lbs equipment/car hauler with my 4200 jeep tj for a total of about 6400 plus 3 people and cooler of food/drinks.
Truck pulled great! True and strait. Other than hitting all the gears didn't even know it was there lol. Was first time in 2nd and 4th I think. M/T I was hitting just about 15 mpg and with trailer 11.5mgp.
Wasn't a long pull...maybe an hour one way but did great. Was kinda surprised it still got to 9th and 10th in tow/haul mode but I'll take it.
Trans didn't seem to go over 219 but mostly hovered 212-215.

Thanks

Sounds like you had a good experience towing with the 7.3L.

Have you noticed a difference in towing with a couple thousand on the motor? Mine seemed to open up a bit, not as much as it did around 500, but noticeable.

Haven't towed again yet. Sold my bumper pull and waiting for my gooseneck. Mostly pull the jeeps for offroading. They are both pulled apart for upgrades. When I do tow again I'll let ya know
