Best decision I made was to flat tow my 2006 Honda Element. I wanted to spend this time in Colorado Springs. But the closest spot I found was 30 miles south in Pueblo, CO. The freedom it gives me is worth the cost. Yesterday I drove 90 minutes up into the Rockies. It would have been a pain to pack up the RV and drive up and down the mountain. Pulling a toad makes life so much easier. It also serves as an extra storage space.

And btw, it doesn't effect mileage too much. I am getting about 8.7 MPG in the mountain passes. (Although the last pass was closer to 8. It was the only time I have spent time in 2nd gear). I am getting close to 10 MPG on the flats. How do I know? I have a Scangauge II. A very useful tool.
