    Towing I get 10-11 and thats towing heavy, gross wt of 19k +. Local driving I get 14 -15 and the dic is usually around 15.4. On a highway run with few starts and stops and keeping the speed at 55 - 60 it will do 19+. On the same run at 65 it knocks mileage down to 17. All hand calculated. I can usually tell a regen if I watch the dic because it will go down about 2 mpg from where it normally will be. My LLY would do a little better than the LMM, but not much. I like the truck.
