He asked best!!! I gave the best answer so far. The trucks I identified will get 14-15 towing his trailer maybe even a little higher and 24-25 empty on the highway. Chris
Gonna have to raise the BS flag on these numbers. Take 5 mpg off of them, and then they are realistic.
I can get 12 mpg out of my 05 Cummins towing 18,000 if I take my time and empty out on the road I get 22-23 not trying. If I slowed down to 65 then I know I can bust over 25 empty. The best I have ever seen was a 400 mile weekend trip on very straight 2 lane. I average 27 mpg hand calculated for that trip. That was a once in a blue moon trip though. With cruise set @ 75 I'm in the 22-23 range empty. So put your flag away.;)
