2016 Gmc Denali hd with a duramax. Gets 21mpg empty and 16.5 / 17 towing my 921 xp. I had a Ford f 150 with an EcoBoost. Great motor but I only got 18 / 19 empty and 12 with the boat.

Old Dodge Ramcharger and older Dodge van. I don't know the mileage. Around 10 for the van and 5 for the Ramcharger. Or so.

2010 gmc 2500 and a 721 with a sho and 15' talons. It has a 4" lift, efi live, and exhaust. I get 15-16 empty and 12-13 towing. I will be honest though, I don't really try to get great mileage.
2016 Ram 1500 Crew Cab 4x4 EcoDiesel w/GDE Tune. 2011 721 Pro XP. Typically only tow at 65 mph on expressway in tow mode. 18-19 mpg. If I'm driving 70 it's 17-18. 55-60 mph towing gets around 20.
Truck gets 27 mpg at 70 mph on summer diesel. 29+ mpg on summer diesel at 60mpg.

Got a 2018 Ram 2500 quad cab with a 6.4L Hemi. I’m seeing around 11mpg around town. And 9mpg towing my 721. It sux!!! That is the reason you never see the average mpg on the window stickers for the 6.4! Actually had to pay a extra $k for fuel consumption tax when I bought the rig.
