Anyone have an idea of how many miles to the gallon a “normal” hay pod reduces the fuel consumption?i know that it has many variables ( tow vehicles, speed, pod size,mountains, etc ) Just a general question. Thanks

I would guess that if you are like me you cant even tell the difference, but then i am in a semi pulling 35K, i get 7.9 mpg and not much changes that.  if you were in a ford ranger it makes more of a difference.

Friend of mine that hauls for a dealer says a hayrack/pod costs him 1 MPG. Or about 10%.
