I might think twice before spending 2100 for the banks if it doesnt increase tow milage.

I have had much better mileage staying at 60mph while towing through the eastern Sierras. I averaged about 9 mpg. Worse the faster I drive.

Our '99 F-250 2wd 6spd Manaul 7.3 gets 17 MPG @ 70MPH Empty, 24 MPG @ 60 Empty, and 11-12 MPG pulling '03 Jayco Qwest 265 (8500 lbs) @ 60 MPH. It sounds like you are in the ballpark.

I get 15-17 empty going posted speeds empty. 9 - 10.5 towing the 30' cardinal.
My truck is a 01 dually with 4.11 gears and a 6 speed manual.
Ditto on the banks for our trucks. I had it and have the same results with a ATS ported housing and a 45 hp Tow mode piggy back chip.
