We have a new 2020 6.2l with ten speed tranny. Hard to believe but all reports indicate both the 6.2 and 7.3 are getting very similar mpg.
At the time we purchased our truck the 7.3 were very limited in inventory. Don’t know what the supply looks like now.
In any case the 6.2 has been great for us-no complaints.
We haul a 4500# TC or tow up to 12,000#. No problems at all. Very pleased with this truck.

Edit; I realized I didn’t answer your question. An average weekend trip for us with the TC is ~500 miles. Fuel consumption is ~ 11 mpg. Pretty much what I was getting with the previous diesel. Love the 48 gal tank in this truck. I filled up yesterday and (without TC) have a projected range of > 600 miles.
We have now completed our first full season of hauling the TC or towing the Airstream to all of our usual haunts. Very happy with this truck and the decision to go with gas.
