I did it!

Very nice looking truck, sorry to hear about the rear ending she took. Glad to hear no one was hurt and damage was minimal. Enjoy that new truck smell.

I'm just about to do the same thing. I'm fed up with constantly having worry about any extra weight in my truck when I tow, and I'm not a fan of the mushy 1/2 ton ride. I've got a 6.2L F250 all picked out, but the only thing holding me back right now is the possibility of the 2017 Super Duties having a 10 speed with the gasser. It would be sweet to get the same MPG I'm getting right now but in a 3/4 ton truck... Bleh, but I wanna tow with it now!!!

Love my 2013 6.2. I hang around 8 to 8.5 mpg towing. I even use it for my daily driver, get between 12 and 15 mpg, depending on my mood...I've had zero issues with mine. Tows great and I'm very happy with it. I'm sure you will be too. Oh, I have a dent in the lower right fender right in front of my rear tire. Don't know who did it and I didn't notice it myself, the wife saw it. Very small dent and hard to see but it still makes me mad. My wife just said shake it off, it happens.

After a 800 mile trip averaged 8.5mpg towing. A little disappointed. Hoping this increases as i put on more mileage. Traveling in town ~10mpg. Took on the interstate today and averaged about 13.5 not towing. About the best i can expect for a large V8.

BTW the only damage was the bumper and all repairs will be complete by Tuesday. Then I can concentrate on better tires and a sprayed bed liner and other personalizations.

Besides I got rearended today and I am totally discusted. 8days and 668 miles I get to start filing insurance claims and dealing with repairs. At least no one was hurt other than my pride

Man I hate that for you. That sinking feeling in your gut is the worlds worst feeling. I sure hope it's not to severe and it gets worked out for you. Even more so, hope the guilty party has a good insurance company that will take care of you!

That first scratch is always the hardest to deal with... hope it turns out well.

Oh man, that stinks big time. Had it happen to me once with a brand new Grand Cherokee I bought in 08. 1300 miles and a guy blew a stop sign and did about 17k in damage...

Nice looking truck! Let us know how it pulls and what type of mileage you get.

We're at Topsail now. I'll be looking for a new Ford.
