this past october i bought a 2017 f250 crewcab with the 6.2 gasser and 3.73 gears. it was an upgrade from my 2000 f150 5.4 gasser that i still drive daily. our tt is about 7500lbs loaded to camp. i couldn't be happier with the towing. just clicked 7k miles on it with probably 5k towing. we have had 2 hour trips up to 6 hours so far with it. mountains to the coast. with weights up to and above 9000lbs i would want the 4.30 rear end. with our tt weight the 3.73 has no problems. its nice to be going up a steep grade and actually accelerate if needed.
