Here's a video of a hot shot driver that did a test pulling a load at 65 mph vs 70 mph. It appears his 6.7 cummins with the aisin tranny doesn't like running at 65 mph with all the gear shifting probably caused his extra fuel consumption.

I don't see how that guy has over 92k subscribers. He is so annoying to watch. I could only get about a minute into it before I had to turn it off.
Although I wonder if he reconfigured his speedo for those oversized tires he has. They look to be at least 1 inch over which would totally mess up his numbers(even hand calculated) if he is doing a mileage run. My Ram and F150 would showed that I got 3-4 mpg less than when I finally got the speedo corrected with my 1 inch oversized tires.
He also looks to have some sort of a front end level or lift kit. I can see the white lettering of a Carli suspension torsion bar right under the drivers door which are generally for a 3-6" lift. Not sure why he would be worried about fuel mileage with that kind of setup. All the things he did to the truck is kind of counterintuitive for wanting to attain the best mpg possible.
