    I tow 10k regularly with single wheel 350. I’ve had up to 21k on it.

      And it does pretty good?

        Handles the load and pulls it extremely well. Mileage is the worst of the big 3. I can hook on to my 12’ tandem axles and throw my side by side on the back and still barely get 11 mpg. Or I can hook up my 24’ lowboy and load it down and get 10-10.5. With the 21K load I barely saw 6.5, but that was mostly due to the large wind sail and not so much the weight.

              My doors rattled something fierce on my 2017 F250 Super Duty. I tried adjusting the strike plate/latches. In the end, I used some rubber tape and lots of lithium grease. Now they are tight and quiet. I hate rattles.....

                Seems like Ford has been the worst in Mileage in the diesels forever. I wonder why this is the case? For the record I am a Ford guy so I am not trying to start a bunch of mess.

                  Stock was 17-18 highway, and 13-14 town. Then I put it on 37s and dropped to 11.5-13.5 highway, and I wasn’t even about to check the in town mileage. Shortly after I deleted it and sit about 15-17 highway, and 13ish town now. So pretty close to stock, but MUCH better performance all the way around unloaded. Loaded it doesn’t seem to make any difference at all.

                    Another guy told me about that a few weeks ago.

                            I got a 2019 F250 a couple months ago and this new 6.7 turbo seems to have more power than my 2014 F350 and 2 before that one. I'm getting 17 mpg on daily driving and it jumps to 18 on trips to Houston. Haven't made a road trip yet to see how good the mpg will get on the highway.

                              14’s has a compound 2 turbo system, going back to a simplistic single is much better!

                                Congrats on the new truck! I have 2018 F250 and like it so far. I have 19K miles on it so far. The best part of it compared to my 2014 is the bigger fuel tank. It gets the same fuel mileage as my 2014 or maybe a hair better. 18 on the highway.
