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 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.

I had it for sale and a kid told me he'd take it then backed out. Since then, I bought another crawler and trailer, so it's sticking around for a while. It's completely stock with the original heads, studs, gaskets, etc. I talked to the guys at SCT before I bought the tuner and was told that it would be safe as long as I stayed out of it. I have a pyro gauge and it never goes above 1200. I'm sure it won't last forever, but I treat it pretty nicely.

Wow it's amazing what an air filter and fuel filter do.I can tell it's not sluggish and it's got more gitty up.

My 2000 F-250 with a 5.4 and 275,000 miles gets around 10 towing my Heep. It is all stock except for the utility bed.
