My brother-in-law used to have an '89 F350 crew cab dually with the 7.3 non-turbo engine. We used to borrow it all the time.
I once borrowed it to pull my 18' flatbed to Topeka, KS to pick up an Olds Ciera of my niece's that had spun a rod bearing. I got 14 mpg for the round trip. Another time we ran it empty up to St. Paul, MN and got around 18.
I don't know if this is a negative record or not, but I once hauled a '67 GTO to Minneapolis from Lincoln, NE for a fellow and pulled the same trailer with a Chevy crew cab dually, 454 gas burner. I got 6.8 mpg round trip, hauling the "Goat" to Minneapolis and pulling the empty trailer back. But--I admit I had the hammer down with the A/C on. I was trying to make time, not gas mileage.
