Nice video. I will have to try to find the rest of the test and have a look.
When travelling in convoy with a 200 series with similar setup of touring gear and roof top tent, I was always backing off when following the 200 and overtaking slower vehicles on the open road. I also used less fuel at every fuel stop. My car is a 2010 D4 3.0SE.
I had a couple of drags with my son in law's 4.8 petrol Patrol in the NT last year. He had a roof top tent and I had a 1800kg camper trailer. I left him for dead on both occasions. This was starting from about 60kph, not standing start and the first time he reckoned he was in the wrong gear and wanted a rerun!
