Fuel Economy Ratings

Any place I can see fuel economy ratings for different class 8 trucks
with various configurations?

Am looking to compare different truck models with various engine and
gear ratios vs fuel economy. Basically what is the best vehicle/setup
offered by any manufacturer. I realize that driving technique has a
lot to do with this. Just looking at basic ballpark figures.

Thanks,

JD
