Looking at a 2019 F-350 with a 6.7 diesel. Currently have a Triton V-10 that gets about 9 mpg. (about 6 mpg towing.) The sticker doesn't list mileage on the diesel. Wondering if the diesel gets better mpg and will it be enough to offset the higher cost of diesel fuel?(3.31 rear end)
Thanks

Not sure if you will ever off set the price of the engine/fuel but I do know you will be happy with the power/torque of the diesel over gas. I would recommend 3:73 gear ratio over the 3:31. My 2017 F-450 has the 6.7 Power stroke with 4:30 rear end. I get 14MPG solo and 9 MPG towing... If the wind is blowing, all bets are off. Bottom line IMO, you cant beat a diesel when towing.
