07 F53 V10 3V with 5 spd, we have only put 2,500 miles on it since we got it, but 7 mpg towing 6,000lbs at 60-65 mph, and 8 mpg alone running between 65-70 mph. I think I can get into the 8.5 range with time and a good tune. I will later down the road get the Banks exhaust system. It "woke up" my 460 and I expect it to do the same for the V10.
Worst mileage......Highway 26 in Oregon, 6% grade for miles with a 40 mph headwind. I used 19 gallons of fuel to go 63 miles. That's 3.3 mpg.
As for best mileage.......14.5 mpg in an 05 W22 8.1 with Allison 5 spd, going east from Twin Falls Idaho with a 40 mph tail wind with 60 mph gusts for over 2 hours.
