The truth is you are not going to get any mileage pulling that big of a trailer,not to mention running the crap out of your drive train.I have to say that I wouldn't try to pull a trailer that big with my 5.0.
The way to go is a diesel,even then you will be looking at 12-14 max while towing,I would guess.My 2 buddies in Reno get 12mpg towing with their 2002 duramax duallies and they haul some serious loads.
