Took off from Eastern Washington in my 2017 Ram Cummins 2500 pulling a wildcat maxx 28rkx probably weighing close to 10k, its about 8k dry. Man that truck pulls that trailer good. On flat stretches I would put in 6th gear and let it go and on hills or passes would lock in 5th and it just straight pulls. Even had to make a pitstop in Havre Montana to pick up two combine tires for my cousin which probably weighed 700 pounds or so, so I had a pretty good load. I never did hand calculated mileage but computer said overall for the 2400 miles was 12.7mpg. Glad I wasnt making that trip with the 6.4 hemi i traded in for the cummins.
Pretty fantastic milage if it's even close to accurate. Did that include some driving without the trailer?
This part of the world that sort of mileage is common. Grey Nomads surprise me in what distances they cover
