6.7 l diesel mpg loaded at 20k

Okay so I'm curious as to what the fuel mileage is for people that are using their 6.7 for hauling.

Pulling 20000 lbs? Dont think fuel mileage should be a concern. What's the terrain?

My deleted tuned 6.4 gets 11 ish pulling around 13500

I could see makin' a living with a truck at GVWR of 20 where mileage would matter on a bottom line.

If you need to pull that much weight, you shouldn't be concerned with mileage, because it's not going to be great.

You would probably be around the 10-12 area.

I know my 6.0 pulls my horse trailer which is probably around 5k and I get about 16 MPG. When I pulled a 17k pound load of hay (total trailer weight loaded) I got just under 8 MPG.
