There are too many human and physical variables to provide and good answer. The best way to tell is with dyno in a controlled environment. The coefficient of drag is about the same for all diesel trucks.
I don't think we need to get accurate to 3 decimal places. a range is what people need so they can plan effectively.
saying 9-12 is pretty accurate compared to 19-20.
my rule for my planning is total miles expected to travel/10 (mpg)
* $4/gal fuel cost. that gets me a close enough estimate
