2003 F-350 poor fuel consumption- 7 MPG

My 2003 F-350 with 110 K miles is getting 7.8 MPG. It reads that on the top digital controller that has temp and miles until empty. Right now the truck is full of gas it reads 253 miles until empty. Truck has a 38 gallon tank, that math equals 6.6 MPG which is what my scan gauge 2 says i think.
The truck has 285-75-r16 Cooper STT and is a dually with rear wheel spacers. The truck also has HD leaf packs, the ones that are in a 550. I guess this could be the difference in MPG.
I do regular maintenance, fuel filters, oil change, just did air filter today to see if there is a change. Over time the MPG's have gradually gone down from the teens…. but this is getting pretty bad.
I am in Nantucket, MA, small island, stop and go, pulling trailers all the time.
Any thoughts besides keep filling her up??? Thanks
