We have the 6V92 Silver DD engine.....350 horsepower with after cooled turbo. We pull an enclosed car trailer. Coach (36') weighs 29,000 lbs., and trailer with car (2001 VW Beetle) weighs in around 7,000 lbs. Have been traveling full time since 2012 and average around 6.5 to 7 mpg for the last 64,000 miles. Have around 167,000 miles on the odometer. As others have indicated, terrain has an impact. We set cruise control at 60 mph....that is our sweet spot for best mileage.
