I use 87 for most of my driving, 91 if towing anything. So far all I have towed is a 6x8 rental trailer loaded with about 200 pounds of cargo. The trailer weighs between 1,000 to 1,500 pounds, not a big load but was surprised to see my mileage didn't change more than .5 miles per gallon. Now if that stays the same when we get the 2,800 pound Trailmanor trailer I will be really happy.
