Got a customer getting about 16 out of his new dually. Just spoke with him today. Might have something to do with using a 35K lb backhoe to beak it in, though . . . .

I was getting 11MPG, took the lid off my factory air box and now get 13MPG!!

I have 20" wheels and 33" mud tires though...I hear they KILL fuel milage! Also have a straight pipe in place of the muffler.
