Strauss proposes new rules, services for vehicle residents

Seattle City Councilmember Dan Strauss has introduced legislation to expand services for people living in vehicles while limiting unpermitted motorhomes and travel trailers to two hours of parking on city streets. The Vehicle Resident Assistance Program (VRAP) would direct $5 million toward services, create a vehicle storage program for people entering shelter or housing, and establish a vehicle permitting system for those living in motorhomes and travel trailers. The legislation also updates the city's Junk Vehicle Law, which hasn't been updated in 25 years, and is scheduled for discussion by the Public Safety Committee on Aug. 11.

Ford Maverick Hybrid Towed a Camper 5,000 Miles at 16.2 MPG, but Its Oil-Life Monitor Told a Harder Story

A Ford Maverick Hybrid with the 4K Tow Package towed a 16-foot Bushwhacker Plus travel trailer weighing about 2,400 pounds over 5,000 miles, achieving a reported 16.2 mpg. However, the oil-life monitor dropped to 8% after 3,400 miles since the last oil change, suggesting an interval of about 3,500 miles under severe towing conditions. The route included 10% grades in the Bighorn Mountains and high elevations, increasing engine load.
