I thought the V10 were supposed to have horrible mileage. This is better than our fleet diesels. I do love the manual tranny. You automatic folks are missing out on a nice tranny. I know, dont want to shift etc.....
I should have got the manual. I have 08 V10 auto SRW Crew cab long bed 4x4 and I get 12-13 hwy and 10-11 around town. And thats soft pedaling it around town or it goes to 8-9.
