Having had both an E350 (25' MH) and E450 (28' MH), my experience is that the E450 gets slightly better mileage because (despite the difference in axle ratio) the E450 doesn't shift down as frequently while driving. I believe that's because the E450 engine is higher into the torque range and is able to negotiate hills better.
Usually avoiding Interstates and running 50 to 55 MPH, my mileage before towing was a shade less than 10. Towing the Focus it's slightly over 9.
In the Rockies and WV, the mileage is dismal.
