I have two guys who work for me who both have Dodge trucks with the Cummins diesel, and both are getting in the middle 20's.

One guy tows a large ski boat, and the other tows a horse around, and they both say they get about 18 when towing.

The guy with the ski boat had a Chevy with the Duramax diesel, and got terrible mileage in the low teens.

When he heard what the other guy was getting that tows the horse, he traded in his Chevy for the Dodge.
