Well I Bit The Bullett............
I Finally Broke Down And Bought A Brand New....7.2 Miles....2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty Diesel. Traded "Skippy The Wonder Truck" In
360287 Miles And The Valve Covers Had Never Been Off Of It!
Plannin' On Retiring In About 3-Years So I Figured I'd Go Ahead And Do This Now. Sure Is Different Than My Last Diesel! 97' F-250! I Guess This One Will Pull My Old "Heavy" XR02's Or The Heavier XB02!

Retiring Skippy
Say it ain't so
I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

i just did the same tues night. i had a 2008 f250 with the 6.4 in it. could not get a deal here where i bought my 08. ended up taking 4 days to get bozard ford in st augustine to see it my way. got a new 2013 with the 6.7 and so far fuel mileage seems to be at least 5mpg better around town. and yes i got my promotion at burger king.
good luck with your new truck mike. i cant run with your boat. but maybe i can hang in the f250 race on the back road.

I'm driving an '06 F250 4 x 4 6.0 diesel work truck that is very nice. Basic model but drives good and when the motor comes on boost..., wow. Originally Posted by Corona Mike

Grats on the new ride Mike. you're going to love it. I was so disheartened when the 7.3 went away and have been unimpressed until the release of the 6.7. My shop truck is a 2012 F250 crew cab, long bed, 4WD, and gets 18mpg all day long with my heavy foot....would do 20 I'd bet, if I were nicer to it.

It's Still Got Less Than 200-miles On It Super Cab 4X4 And I'm Seeing 17.4. My Nephew Had One And He Got Between 18 and 20! They Say If You Put Either A Edge Or Super-Chip Programer In It, You Will See An Easy 22+!! Now, That's Impressive Cause' This Thing Has Plenty Of Power!
