Mpg while pulling.

@djetok 2011 F250 Superduty. No serious grades on the trip, but lots of gradual up and downs resulting in about 2000' of elevation change from start to end.

Gotcha. I saw the gauge cluster but was shocked to see the economy on a 250

I'm looking at the 10 speed eco 150 for my next.

That's what we are doing in the am. I'm interested to see the tow difference with the 3.55. I wonder if the 17s have the front discs issue still. I changed mine out for slotted rotors because they warped so easy.

Yea I put drilled and slotted power stop rotors on my 2500

Does the tow package come with 355?

Yes you can get the max tow. I just currently have tow and 331 gears. The new one will have 355 and tow. The max tow doesn't have tow mirrors. I don't think the tow mirrors will fit in the garage as I have to fold my small mirrors now. Maybe the wife needs a smaller car lol

 

[DCB-270]

Smart car .NOT!

I ended up with a ignot silver platinum with eco boost, 10 speed, 3.55 and max tow. Now I have to upgrade my programmer to a ngauge to program it. I will get the 5 star tunes to tow and I will get a mpt to haul a$$ in.

If anyone wants a sct4 for 300 that's what 5 star gives for trade on the ngauge. I will clay bar and rejex it tomorrow

 

[DCB-270]

That is what I would go for. Maybe XLT.

Do not goto Joe Cooper here in Edmond. Bunch of jerk offs. We spent so much time and they tried switching trucks and low balling my trade. I bought from Reynolds in Norman it took 1.5 hours from the time I walked on the lot to the time I drove off. I offered the same money on like trucks at Joe Cooper we were 5k a part. At Reynolds we were 1000 apart and met in the middle

 

[DCB-270]

Seems like most car guys are jerk offs.

 

[djetok]

I agree

Reynolds did me right on the 2015 in Edmond before they sold it to Cooper and they did me right in norman Today.

If your looking at a 2017 , I do have invoice price sheet to for anyone that wants it.

 

[DCB-270]

I've still rolling on my Cummins. 284k. Just looking around.

 

[DCB-270]

08 still goes quick .hard to find a truck that gets better MPG and tows like a beast

Just did two long tows.... Raleigh to Ft Lauderdale and back, and Raleigh to Shelbyville.

Audi Q7 TDI

When I was pushing 70-80mph my MPG was 11.8-12.2
When I kept it between 65-70mph my MPG was 12.5-13.2

I can get her up to 29.5mpg highway not towing, and get 20-22 city not towing.

I wonder what the gas Audi does?

 

[Markk]

Just towed from Dallas to San Antonio with 6.2litre Yukon XL. Averaged 13mpg. Without boat I can get 20.

Not bad. Got to love diesels for towing
