I’d also through wind into the equation.
That might be included in speed part, but I still remember moving with 7k cargo trailer from San Francisco area to Las Vegas.
3 trips, so average -going down to Vegas with ca 7000lb of stuff I was averaging 11 mpg.
Going back empty, I averaged 9 mpg. CC always set firmly at 60 mph.
You can figure out how desert winds can play with fuel economy.
