Camper is 5700lb dry. We got about 8.5mpg on the trip to Michigan. That's about normal. A bit lower than I would like, but that's what you get with a 3.5 engine and dual turbos. Larger engine and diesel would get about 10-12pmg or so.
Be sure you check tongue weight. I was over a few hundred pounds and remedied that. Also that you camper is level to the truck when hitched up - that helps keep swaying down (if you are too high).
It pulls like a charm. We have hit the hills on north central PA a few times - lots of up and down and windy roads. No issues at all with handling those hills. Same with hitting the highway from a ramp - I can be at 60mph+ pretty quickly. I usually don't exceed 65.
Hope this helps.
