We are pulling the 172 with our Touareg V6.  The mileage was 14 without the AC and about 13 with.  Speed was between 55 and 65.
 
The Touareg is only rated at 14 city and 19 highway so we are very happy with the Pod mileage.

Hi all.  We had our first trip towing our R-171 behind our 2006 Jeep liberty 2.7l V-6 with factory tow package.  The jeep is rated 17-22mpg by itself.  We got 11.7 mpg towing the R-Pod.  We limited our speed to 55-60mph max.
