I get 10 MPG fully loaded with my F350 dually. When I say fully loaded I have my 11'6" camper and a ffPW or WC53 on a trailer behind that. I am over 23K # and travel at about 65 MPH. I recently drove from Seattle to Ind, IN to Reno to Hollister, Ca and back to Seattle with lots of stops in South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana in between. I was over 10,000 feet in many places and obviously crossed many mountain ranges. My favorite were the Big Horn Mountains.
I will occasionally see less than 10 MPG if I have a strong head wind. With just the camper I get 11 to 12 MPG. I have no clue what it gets unloaded as I never drive it that way.
