I've got an 08 f450. 85k miles. Bone stock everything. I've got friends with stock f250's and f350's that get 15mpg and I've figured it so I know they really are. Mine gets 7.5 and last month I ran $2500 worth of fuel through it. And that cost is going to drown me, lol.
So I'm wondering if it will ever get remotely close to that if I do a tune, egr delete, dpf delete, and re-gear it. I realize its heavier than those lighter trucks but if I could get 12 or 13 with it I'd be tickled pink. I love the truck and really dont want to trade or sell it. Rides and drives great, no problems yet but I can't afford to run it like this. Hell I got rid of a c6500 topkick that got 12mpg to upgrade to this thing.
