I just got 15.3 mpg on my last fill-up, hand calc'd, going from 500ft to 5000ft and back again pulling a 1000 lb snowmobile trailer empty.

My 7.3L gets 15mpg around town, Generally freeway mileage is about 18-19. I have seen 20mpg over a 700 mile trip but the terrain was flat most of the way. All unloaded mpg.

On the expressway I have seen 18-23 depending on conditions at 65-70mpm. I towed a car hauler with Acura RL yesterday and got 16mpg for a 150 mile trip at 65 mph. Around city traffic though that number drops down to 9-12 but we have killer traffic here.
