Ford F250 6.2L gas 2011 towing a 24' exterior trailer. I got 9.3MPG going from Montreal to Yellowstone. I always drove exactly the speed limit and never above 65.
From what I have read this is typical. Lighter truck would give me better MPG empty but not while towing. Only reducing surface area(pop-up) would help.
Fun fact. I drove the highway towards the salt flats without the trailer doing 80 and MPG was about the same as 65 with the trailer.
