You are probably getting about the best you will get on winter blend fuel,with real world driving.Don't believe the computer,it usually reads 15-18% high. Check your mileage at each fillup.

My '07 Duramax powered 5500 service truck (18,700#) averages a consistant 6.5 on winter blend fuel,and about 7.8 mpg on summer blend in mixed driving. Best it ever got was right at 9.5 on the 800 mile drive home from the body installer,with empty compartments on winter blend.
