depends on how much you spool up the turbo, i do alot of highway miles with the one i have and i get around 17mpg running around 75. and around town the milage drops alot 14 range i would say. i have a 05 quad cab long bed. it has a 32 gallon tank and i can run 550 mabey more on the highway and 3xx in town, i spend about 230 a week on fuel

Mine sucks, but its all relative to your right foot.
I average about 15mpg on the hwy empty, usually around 80mph
Towing the Lightning in the enlcosed trailer... Heh.. I am lucky to get about 10-11mpg. Most of the time its 9. But for some reason the truck feels like it tows better at 80... Seems like its in the powerband better so I'm sure thats where my mileage is.

My Dad's DMAX gets 16-18mpg on the highway driving 80mph or so with trips up to the speed limiter.
I'd say it could get 20mpg driving sensible but, that is hard to do around here with all the crazy/slow/not paying attention drivers. 
It's a GMC 2500HD '04.5(LLY) Extended Cab Long Bed 4*4 with a camper shell. He has a juice box on level 1(monitor is easily accessible
