What is the average hourly fuel consumption rate for this dozer under a 75% load factor?

I've been looking at some D6 and D8 specs, and it feels like dozers are in a completely different league than excavators. Since a dozer is basically a massive friction machine, constantly fighting ground resistance and pushing weight, the fuel numbers are pretty staggering.

Here is the breakdown I've put together based on some manufacturer handbooks and operator chatter. Pro guys, please tell me if this matches your reality or if I'm way off.
