F250 6.2L 3.73 4x4 Super Crew MPG

Looking at this unit for a pop-up truck camper. What can I expect in town and on the hwy with out camper. The camper will weigh 2200# ready to go. Not sure how much mileage will drop? Usually stay at 65-70 on freeway.

    Very interesting! everyone`s mileage is only 1 mpg higher when empty than my 10 year older V-10. And with my taller and heavier trailer only 2 mpg better loaded!


    I was thinking the same thing. My 03 Burb with the 8.1 gets around 8-9 mpg towing my 6500 pound boat at 70-75 mph.

    I guess my mileage isn't really terrible.

    ...interesting.

    Meh. Not really.
    That's about all a std F250 likes in the bed anyways unless it's got some help in the spring department.
