14 mph is probably average....based upon the way most drive.
I just wave when they blow by me at 70mph!!!
The delivery times are based upon 45 or 50 mph. There is no reason to drive at 70 mph...unless you are a Super Trucker.
My 2008 Aerocell with dual rear wheels and weighing about 2000 lbs more than a regular cargo van can get 14 mpg.
And my 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 Ext WB can easily get 18 mpg.

it would seem to be but of course the additional information needed is avg speed, size of engine and type of van.
if you are travelling at 70 that is good. if you are travelling at 60, then no. in cold weather the engine runs richer so mileage is down.
