Thanks for the information.
2020 ,F350, 4x4 , single rear wheel, 4237 payload , 8 ft bed , 373 gears , 10 speed ,3300 miles on it, around 14.4 Mpg in town, 16.4 on a 100 mile trip on interstate. At 75 mph , towing a 7 ft wide X 16 flatbed trailer with a John Deere 1025 r , 12.2 mpg , Most of the time driving around the engine is around 1000 RPM to 2000 RPM, however you get On the throttle and It has no problem dropping a few gears and revving but it won’t if it doesn’t have to, My other truck is a 4.6 F150, so there’s no comparison when I’m towing , however it does remind me of the 6.0 in my 2005 F250 Without all of the 6.0’s problems And no turbo lag , I will be taking the camper out within the next couple of months , anything specific you wanna know just ask, About 3000 to 3500 RPM people has asked while me riding in the truck if I put a Flowmaster on it, stock exhaust is on it but it does have a rumble to it Letting people know there is some cubic inches under the hood - blofgrenExplorer

Sounds sweet! :C - steve-n-vickiExplorerThose are hand calculatedBut the onboard display is usually within 2/10 ,usually lower
- Dave_H_MExplorer IIwhoah there are some MPG figures that beat the hey out of my F250 with 6.2 and 4.30 diffy :C
- buckyExplorer IIAre those mpg figures measured or dash board readings? Sounds like a very nice truck, congrats.

- JTracExplorerGo to Ford-trucks.com and look for 2017 + Super Duty Forum and scroll thru many pages of posts about Super Duty's. It's a very active site. There are several reports on the 7.3, towing and not towing. Sorry, I'm not sure how to post a link or I would have done that.
