When towing a caravan (flat highway roads) is it better to drive in 5th. gear or 4th. gear. There is a general census of opinion it is better to drive in 4th. gear. The weight of the caravan is 1800Kg.
Does driving in 5th. gear put a strain on the drive train and is the fuel economy better in 4th. gear.
Thanks
