So the ten speed only picked up 0.6 mpg over the six speed in towing!?!?!? Not anywhere near what I would have thought for the new ten speed! Add the fact that Ford recommends 91 octane fuel when towing and the Ecodiesel is still hands down the MPG champ. Now when Ford brings their own 3.0 diesel to the market in the summer of 2018 I think you will see a shift in Ford's favor. But Ram has a lot of new things coming for the 1500 in 2018 also so we will have to wait and see how it all pans out.
The one thing that ten speed will do is make an already wicked fast truck even faster! No doubt Ford has some nice vehicles. GM and FCA had better get on the ball or they are going to get their lunches ate!
