Its amazing what good tranny gearing and proper engine management can do to the gas engines.
I would like to see that truck pull a full profile 5th wheel with that weight in adverse conditions and see how it does though. Wind and air resistance creates a lot more drag then the bed full of a water tote and a truck on a trailer.
I pull an equipment trailer and find my fuel economy is often a lot worse pulling it than my 15000 lb RV.
