Been reading a lot about the new 7.3 gasser from Ford and it certainly looks impressive. People are reporting 15 mpg non towing. New diesels with all the emissions **** are not doing a whole lot better than that and at a cost of $8000 more for the diesel option.
I am getting 21 mpg in my ford diesel non towing, I guess if thats your idea of not much better then ok. personaly I think a 50% increase is quite a bit better.
I have been hearing a lot of good things about this motor even though it is gas haha. but it will come as a premium over the base motor also so might not be that much difference in cost over the diesel.
