Make sure you stick to the weight limits and the Odyssey will tow it just fine.
One thing to mention is that we added rear air bags to help with those bumpy roads and we went by the Odyssey manual all the way with the towing requirements.

I would have expected better mileage than that. I tow 4,000 pounds in my TM, plus about 1,200 pounds in the bed of my 5 passenger crew cab truck.
I get about 12 mpg towing on flat ground and 10 mpg towing up and over 9,000 feet.
It looks like my 12 is not bad compared to your 15. Especially if I include cargo capacity and the ability to tow in mountains. My 13-16 around town is terrible.
If you can see oak trees or aspens growing, then you are in the foothills. On a mountain top, there are no trees.
