Yeah, 6.0.
That's my next option, getting it checked at my local shop for anything I may be missing.

You should also look into a tune from Blackbear----a vendor on here. I have a shorty Yukon but with the 6-0 and I get 19-21 on the highway with their 91 OCT Tune. Besides better fuel economy(if you are not heavy on the pedal)-a tune really wakes up your vehicle....
I've been considering that also.

Was it motor swapped or am I missing when a 6.0 was put in an 07? If it was swapped that could be part of your problem.

While I was shopping, I did find a few 07s with the 6.0

Wait a minute, thinking back the 2500's did come with a 6.0. Is yours a 2500?

Yeah, I was second guessing myself, but I do remember going over the previous owner's paperwork and seeing the specs.

I took it to a shop to see if they could find anything wrong.
I notice a slight (so slight, it may just be in my head, due to this MPG ordeal)
They suggested I use sea foam. Since the spark plugs hadn't been replaced since new.
Also, this the previous owner replaced the transmission.

Any advice on this and the seafoam stuff, is appreciated.
