Ive heard it said that a common auto dishwasher uses between 10-15
gallons of water for a complete cycle.

Not definitive but http://www.whirlpool.com/catalog/faq.jsp?sectionId=134

As you can see, these people say to us it to conserve

I've seen references from five to fifteen gallons. New machines do use less
than old ones and many are Energy Star Compliant but that does not tell you
much. You'd probably get a better answer contacting KA directly.
