I’m only getting 6 mpg at 65 mph 1200 rpm. My truck is geared at 2.85. Any ideas? The only time I get 7 mpg or above is at 1000 rpm 58 mph.

Check the basics, no boost leaks anywhere. Check for black soot all around the manifold/turbo. Pressure check CAC (charge air cooler) if you can. A boost leak will make a high pitched squealing noise.
Check engine light on, any codes?
Also with the winter blend fuel it's down about roughly .5-.75 maybe even a hair moreNorth Pole Nightmare and LoneRanger Thank this. -

I get 6.5-7mpg but usually weigh in around 73-80k gross.
