08 F-350 DRW Torqshift--5500 miles. On my last trip pulling 12K horse trailer--about 9-9.5. This was after a trip 14 day ago with the trailer loaded with one less horse and actually got 6.7 on one tank--averaged around 7-7.5. Talked to dealer--and salemen told me to try turning off tow/haul when at highway speed. He said when they got these trucks in Ford gave the salespeople very little sales help with MPG. So this dealership let a group of people pulling cattle stock trailers borrow the trucks if they drove them to their specifications and varying conditions and report back on mileage---and they saw this MPG boost when kicking off tow/haul at highway speeds. Don't know if this is legitimate--but it did seem to help on this trip, or truck is just breaking in more. So that's what mine is getting and FWIW.
