We just returned from a 3,000 plus mile vacation and we got 9-10mpg at 65-70 towing our 28ft 5ver that weighs 11k loaded. Traveled from So. Nevada to No. Montana (Glacier National Park) I get 16-17mgp at 75 when not towing. I have just over 12,000 on the truck now and no problems at all, but 90% of my driving has been towing on the highways.

 

I just returned from a trip to Gatlinburg TN from St. Louis

My 5th wheel is approx 11,000 - 12,000 (not sure)

I was hauling bales this weekend with my 06, and averaged 6.5 mpg. The gcw was about 30 000 lbs, running down soft gravel roads, and its still fairly new, (11 000 miles) so i had it floored the whole time. Egts hovered between 1200-1350, got to get those rings seated
