Tell me about your 2011-16 F250 6.2L
Considering purchasing this generation F250 6.2L with around 100k miles. It will tow our 31' TT (Under 8k loaded), and unfortunately also be my daily driver for hauling two kids and general house duty...

I agree with the wizard on the ride empty. That thing will beat you up.
I like my 2012. Normally we make at least 1 trip across the Smokies each year. Tow 10K and never get below 8.7 mpg. Crew cab short box, works fine without a slider.
At age 77, I think this one will take me to the end of the road.
I do have the optional 4.30 diffy.
In regards to getting groceries, mine knocks out just at 13.8 mpg.
Guess it’s all relative. Those F250s ride pretty plush for a HD truck. Complete with soft initial spring rate in the rear leafs.
If it’s beating you up, either you need something that rides like a Cadillac or you are running too much air in the tires. (Common mistake).
13-14mpg commuting/combined driving is about right. I used to get 12-13 w/ 3.73s and I drive relatively fast.
