What is anyone getting on late model or new 3/4-ton diesel trucks these days? 2500 or F250 ... highway on long trips, or just getting around. What is your actual mileage ?
Seems like good fuel mileage for that size truck!(quoted from post at 09:50:00 03/20/18) Have a 2018 one ton crew cab long bed 4X4 Duramax/Allison Silverado, so far by itself, no trailer low is 16.5, high is 20.8 MPG.
US gallons .(quoted from post at 13:26:32 03/20/18) Well, you gotta remember the gallon used here in Canada is about 12 percent bigger
than a US gallon.

(quoted from post at 10:24:44 03/20/18) Yep ! When the gas/fuel mileage question comes up on here you read a lot of Whopper's. Same thing happens with tire life. Totally unreal figures I have never even came close too in my life.

Have you also noticed that most everyone thinks the size of the engine controls the fuel mileage? With no consideration at all for the axle ratio?
A 3/4 or 1 ton with a 4.10 axle ration will never get the same mileage as the same truck equipped with a 3.40 or a 3.50 axle ratio. Makes NO difference what engine is in the truck.
That is about what my 2016 gets...but put a 14k trailer behind it and it drops to 10. Headed out on a 2500 mile trip without trailer tomorrow, will see what it does. I only have 11k on it(quoted from post at 09:50:00 03/20/18) Have a 2018 one ton crew cab long bed 4X4 Duramax/Allison Silverado, so far by itself, no trailer low is 16.5, high is 20.8 MPG.
(quoted from post at 00:28:16 03/21/18) Well I can not believe the mileage some fellows are saying they are getting. Are they actual mileage or just looking at the computer readout??? The trucks computer readout usually is always higher than the actual mileage if you take the odometer and gallons used.
Good friend has two F350 diesel, crew cab, short bed Ford trucks. 2016 and 2017 models. His daughter drives the one and gets 13-14 empty. He drive the other one and gets 14-15 empty. Neither ever haul anything but real short distance so they have no idea of loaded mileage.

7.7 liters per 100Km “mileage” over a 50Km trip . I tried to post a smart phone image of the dash display on this site . 8.6L per 100Km on a 100KM trip .Unfortunately the file size was too large for ytmag.
(quoted from post at 14:56:14 03/20/18) Must have been a long trip downhill with a tailwind. I thought my little six cylinder did well to get 27mpg.
