All of you are doing better than my 08 F350 dulley. Ran from Cleveland to Hamilton yesterday pulling a 12 ft. box that was empty. I got 11.2 mpg running 65 mph. Pulled my 20' box last weekend with my Wrangler in it. I got 9.7 mpg at 200 miles round trip. At 4.00 a gallon this thing is killing me!!!!:mad:

I've got a 06 with a 6.0 (yeah, I know) and a SCT tuner on the performance setting. Around town, I get around 16, on the highway, I can get around 19 if I set the cruise and not get in a hurry. On the 65 hp tow setting, I get around 13 or 14 depending on terrain. That's hauling a deckover with a Jeep on it.

I use an '02 van with a 5.7, a quad in the van, pulling my 28' toy hauler full with a tracker and 2 quads only get like 6-7mpg

I think it needs a tuneup and that's horrible mileage, but I guess if I'm only gonna be getting 12-14mpg anyays with a diesel then I guess I should just be happy i'm not making payments on one

I thought you sold your truck, I saw what I thought was yours on a Dealer Ad in your area.
I've got the same truck, do you still have the original heads, gaskets , studs etc.? I get ~ 14-15 unloaded and 10-12 towing 7K.

You can improve on that, but I would wait until you get closer to the end of your warranty.
