12.4l/100km average in the summer not towing, with 410L of diesel on the box, approx. 1200lbs, I think. With my trailer its about 20-24l/100km.

2011 F350 Superduty 6.7L all winter empty 15-14L/100km, two sleds on the deck or a trailer it gets 17L/100km(13miles/gal). Last fall when it was quite warm out was getting 17-18miles/gal empty and that was while I was still breaking the truck in.

My old truck (2009 Lifted Duramax) was the chits on fuel but it was also chipped. The 09 averaged around 12 mpg as my foot was always in it, but I've curbed that a bit since picking up a new 2012 3500HD with the newer LML series engine. It's bone stock and around town it's averaged 16L/100 and as low as 13L/100 on the highway. I hauled my car down to the states a couple weeks ago and it clocked an average 10mpg-12mpg towing 11000 lbs and loaded down with more stuff in the back of the box. Total weight over the scales was 19760 lbs and it drove like a Cadillac. Gonna leave this one stock.
