TFL towing - JT diesel vs f150 hybrid

It is interesting to note that the diesel didn’t look full (check 3:44 on video). Haha. Anyway, great video and thought I would post here.

They could be compensating for the difference in fuel tanks.
If the F150 is like my Explorer was, it only has an 18 gallon tank.

They let the pump click, wait 30 sec and then top off, the procedure is the same could be many things

So another hybrid got not-so-great mileage towing.
The all-electric vehicle tow tests I’ve seen so far show they do even worse.

Hey they just showed a plug for a trailer camera. IS THAT REAL? Will I get that with my Overland?

Would be nice if they did a significantly longer loop. Over a tank full. There's far too many factors in just 66 miles. Head wind, if traffic pulls out how hard is the cruise getting back into the throttle etc. Either way, for most situations of towing for utility(a car trailer, dump runs etc) which I would assume is the most likely use case for a lot of people, or I would at least hope so since if your towing regularly you bought into the wrong segment, this truck should serve a lot of guys really well and will be more than content with their fuel mileage.

I am also hopeful there may be something similar on a ecodiesel one day that has some mileage on it as I know with most fullsize trucks the mileage continues to increase significantly for as much as 40k+miles.

I can enable my '19 JL's backup camera anytime the ignition is on, regardless of speed. It just stays on for a couple of seconds like Andre said.

Tazer Mini even tapped in to it for their camera-on-upon-blinker feature.

They showed that you can view the trailer camera from the rear on the Gladiator.
