2017 F350 CC,4x4, DRW, LB, 6.7 w/4.10 gears and tow a '18 Big Country 3560 SS. Tows and handles coach like a dream. very very comfy riding in back seat and napping w/ the DW driving it. Even she likes towing the coach better w/ this truck than the '17 F350 SRW, cc, sb 4x4, 6.7 we had. Running at 70, ave 9 mpgs (grossing 25-26,000). Do wish it had a extra gear so as to not be running at 2100 scooting down the road, but, it is what it is. If you've followed this topic, you've seen that DRW trucks require a bit more finessing when it comes to drive-thrus and fuel pumps. Overall, like the truck very much even if it is like a fish outta water in the winter due to being a DRW. Also know too that I don't have to be worried about being legal in the event of a fender bender.
We have the same truck towing a 2018 Sandpiper 372LOK with a dry weight of almost 14K. We have found the truck to be great for towing, pretty comfy compared to our F250 we traded in. We get about 12-14 mpg towing, according to terrain and weather. Is it big? Yes, it is. Is it worth the extra size? No doubt.
