    Usually from 11-15. Many different motor sizes and gear ratios can affect it. Generally speaking mileage is pretty bad

          15mpg at best, 2017 250. That’s with the wind at my back and no passangers ha. I usually average 13.5. I get 11mph with a 6k trailer.

              I just got rid of my 13’ F-250 CC 4x4 3:73 gears. 6.2 gas. A monthly average was right around high 10’’s low 11’s mpg. That was a combo of Hwy, City, idling, 4x4 at ranch. The best was right around 16mpg, that was running like 65mpg with wind at my back. Loved the truck and would have no problem going back to a 6.2 as I had no issues with it. I would imagine I could have gotten better if I kept my foot out of it.

                  I don't have one but will offer this. If you're trying to compare it to the diesel millage the cost per 10k miles of operation will likely be very close if not better from the gasser once you figure the price difference of fuel and higher operating cost of the diesel.

                  If you don't really need all that extra power it's a good option imo.

                            I don’t think worrying about gas mileage is a concern if you want a 3/4 ton. I accept that I’ll get 12 mpg and just move on

                              [emoji106] $50k truck, $80 vs $100 per week in fuel.
