F150 Power Stroke goes 736 miles on a tank of diesel

That's pretty impressive. It appeared to be a 4X2 but regardless great numbers for a full size pickup.

That is impressive. Though I never tried, with my stock 36 gallon tank I'm sure I could theoretically get 650 miles at 18 mpg empty on the freeway at 75 mph or close to 800 miles at 60-65 mph and 22 mpg. Those are of course under optimal conditions. :)

The best I ever got on a 100 mile stretch was 24 mpg at 60 driving in the UP of Michigan where you can set the cruise and drive for miles without any stops.

33 MPG ! That is unbelievable for an F150, even unloaded !

Still have to add DEF and it's till a diesel and that costs more per gallon last time I checked.

I get a charge out of the new pickup trucks with the tiny beds. Cab is bigger than the box. Around here, if it isn't an 8 foot box, it don't get bought. We use our trucks as trucks, not grocery getters.

Mileage is impressive , range is not ! I go 600 to 650 miles between fill ups , if I want to ! Most times I stop ever couple hundred miles anyway for a pitt stop
After many years people still complain about DEF ! Many times I go a month without buying any DEF and I drive and tow constantly .

I agree, adding def is a non issue $$ wise, and its months it seems between fill ups.

60 mph is the key to fuel milage.

Not bad, it 2001 Ram with DS Power Puck and RV275 injectors have gotten over 600 miles on a 28 gallon fill up pushing 7,800#.! The 7,800# is the unloaded weight of our Ram.

Driving like the subject of this did, I can get well over 20 MPG with my 6.7 diesel. Now with my 50 gallon Titan tank it reads 999 MTE because it won't go any higher.

That's certainly impressive fuel economy. I've seen these trucks advertised in my area but haven't noticed any on the road yet.
