August of 2005 I bought my F150 4x4 Lariat with every option available and paid $36k, financed by Ford's no interest loan. Today it has 77,500 miles. Drove to South Central Oregon a few weeks ago and it averaged 18.5 MPG; around town 13.5 MPG.
When towing TT, it blesses me with 9-10 MPG, even more if I didn't drive 60-65 MPH. My brother in law just paid $75k for his new "used" F250. WTF I say....
I'm not trying to justify your bro. in laws purchase $75K is a lot for a F250.
But there is really no comprison betwen a 2020 F250 and a 2005 F-150.
Your talking apples and oranges and 16 years of technology.
My point is a used F250 (also decked out with all the options) is selling for twice what I paid for my F150, 16 years ago. You are right, "no comprison betwen" the two.
Ff you don't consider price there is still no comparison betwen those 2 trucks.
Yes they are both Ford pick ups but that is where the comparison ends.
