Thanks for the info. I just took my first trip to a local lake for a couple of days. About 90 miles. I got 7.6 MPG both ways. I have a new engine, about 2oo miles on it, I hope the mileage gets better as it breaks in. I got from 10 to 14 on my 05 F350 depending on wind direction and hill factor. So I kind of went into shock with this outcome. I also have a 488 rear end so I know that is also a factor.
