Is this high mileage?

I just completed two long hwy trips, and have, what I think is, pretty good mileage. Both trips were Northern to Southern California.

The first was 730 miles, 26.7 MPG, and the second was 911 miles, 25.7. Both trips used the cruise control set to 70, involved traversing a 4,000 Ft. mountain, and the second trip had a passenger. Both trips used the same pump island to top the tank before and after the trip.

The truck is a 2015 access cab, manual trans, with a Snugfit Rebel shell.

Is this better than most, or does this match what others are getting?

I drove from WA to SC with a 1500lb trailer set at 70 most the way and averaged 24.5

 

That sounds very good.

 

Better than most. If that is a 4wd, that is phenomenal. I am surprised you got no replies calling you a liar or from those who say truck owners shouldn't be concerned about gas mileage. I have had a few of those.

 

I've done several long trips (1500 miles) in my 4cyl and the overall trip average was about 28mpg. Not much of a load, cruising 65-70. A few city miles included but not enough to really affect this average, so I'd say 28 legit highway mpg. 5-lug automatic access cab 2wd, all stock. Your numbers are also very respectable.
