Gas VS Diesel F250
I am looking at new F250, I have f wheel about 8000lbs. I would like to know gas mileage while towing and not towing, also on diesel. How would gas handle the load? Thanks

Just to stick with the basics, today's vehicle computers won't let you abuse the engine. If it's not in limp mode it's good to go. Nice try but you need to get yourself a new dance card, the old one is worn out, tattered, and expired.zedd wrote:
Anyone tow with a gasser in the mountains in the West? The hills back east really pale compared to a lot of the stuff out here. A gasser trying to haul up a 7% grade at 8000 or 9000 ft altitude is really straining. Quite a different environment. I've passed lots of gassers laboring up mountain grades at 25mph screaming at near red line.
X10!!! Zedd is absolutely right! The hills out here are savage and in my opinion most gassers are past the verge of abuse engine and transmission wise. #REDLINE
