F250 PSD vs F150 5.0L towing 9k lbs
The F250 got 9 mpg towing a 9k horse trailer. I wonder how folks here tow a 35' high profile 5er and get 12 mpg out of their diesels? :W VIDEO The 5.0L got 8.4 mpg towing the same trailer.

Didn't watch the video so I dont have an explanation for the low mileage. What I can say from my own personal experience is I average 12 pulling our 10,600# loaded mid profile fifth wheel. Yesterday we pulled 220 miles and averaged 12.3 mpg. With that being said this is Not hand calculated but what the computer is telling me. But based on the fuel gauge I got to believe it's not far off. The only time I get sub 10 mpg is when it's in regen mode.
Edit: I wanted to add I travel at 65 mph to average 12 mpg
