Easy. Drain plug is plastic and removes with 3/8" ratchet. Need large drain pan for the 13.2 quarts of oil. Oil filter is screw on.

My 2011 6.7 gives me about 19 mpg on highway and about 14.8 while towing 14,000# 5er. (drops to 10.4 mpg towing in the mountains of WV)
Keep your foot OUT of the throttle and speed down and your mileage will be better. If you are engaging the turbo and feeling the "power" sensation, you will be paying at the pump. Your choice. This truck has tons of available power. If you have to prove how much power it has to yourself every time you take off, your mpg will suffer. Remember you are moving 8000 pounds of dead weight every time you start off from a dead stop. Light throttle is your friend for better mpg.
Change your TWO fuel filters at 22,500 miles. YouTube video will assist you. Very easy job and will save you about $100 to do it yourself.
Enjoy your new Ford. We really like ours.
