I had a '97 Cherokee w/ an inline 6 and got 17 mpg towing my bass boat. Now I have an '05 durango w/ a hemi and get 14 mpg towing. The 6 cylinder was better. But, the Durango can actually stop rather than be pushed by the weight of the boat. And with that slight loss of MPG's, I get 145 more horsepower and the vehicle weighs about a ton more.
