Re: fuel mileage question

[ QUOTE ]
What fuel mileage would I reasonably expect (city and hwy) with a '08 F-250 4x4 4.11 axle and a V-10? Do I read the info right that no 3.73 is available with the V-10 in '08?

[/ QUOTE ] I hang out on both site's,the other one www.fordtruckenthusiasts.com has a forum called -V10 the heavy duty modular,might want to slide over for a look,the owner's of the V10 recomend using the 4.30 rear end as the gaser's power curve is at a higher RPM than a diesel's,also the plug blow out issue was fixed after 2003, I love my 7.3 but after reading on both site's the last 4 year's about the 6.0 and now reading about the issue's with the 08's from "all 3 brand's" and our goverment putting their NOSE in the diesel's who need's it and I started in 1986 with a 6.9/got a 1990 with a 7.3 IDIand had it 12 year's !!, my baby a 2002 7.3 will be the last one,my wife just bought a 2007 expedtion eddie bower with the 5.4 with power every thing,the diffrence between that and her 10 year old explorer sport is nite and day,you need 150,000 mile's a year out of a diesel to justify the cost of the engine/15 qt oil change/ungodly priced fuel filter's/same for oil filter's and issue's that our goverment is causing with diesel's/dpf's,egr's ect,again I love mine but it's the last one,your making a good move over to gas.
