F-250 Trucks

 

I have a 2001 v10 4x4 SC that's been awesome at everything but passing a gas station. Mine has the steeper gears and pulls under 10K lbs as good as any but it's thirsty, 12 in town, 14 @ a constant 70, 11 @ a constant 85, 9 when pulling a 9K lb boat. My Dad has a new Dodge Cummins DRW 4x4 6 speed, it can pull very heavy loads better than mine. Under 10K lbs though, mine rides better around town and when towing.

Just turned over 90K miles and it doesn't burn a drop of oil. My Ford extended warranty just covered about $1200 worth of suspension/drivetrain wear&tear items for a $50 deductible. Although I didn't get the original $1700 back from the extended warranty, it was nice to know that if something expensive (transmission, head, FI) broke, it wouldn't cut into my quad budget.

Good truck, I highly recommend it and Ford's Total Care warranty.

 

i have a 00 f350 duallie with a v10 and love it pulls like a dream yes a little thirsty i get 10 loaded 16 hwy and 12 in town

 

Werd all!

Gettin 19-23mpg unloaded and 10-12 towing 9k lbs...

 

With what motor/tranny? 2 or 4 wheel drive?

 

7.3l PSD/ Auto Tranny/ 4wd/ Short Bed/ Crew Cab.......

 

my 02 f-350 drw cc 4x4 psd auto is my 2nd, and I love it. 15-16 mpg empty, 11-12 loaded, and with 4:10 gears it'll pull anything I need to with ease. If I get really nuts about pulling something I'll break out the 2 1/2 ton military truck, 4x4 is nice, but 6x6 is 50% better!

 

sorry I saw the super duty not the f250, guess I got a little glssy eyed

 

The diesels can get pretty decent fuel mileage. The truck in my pics page has a full intake system, a full exhaust system and a chip and it'll get better mileage than my moms 2001 Monte Carlo SS w/ a 3.8 V6.......and that is with rollin' on 38s!

 

the 250's are great trucks....mine was a 00' 7.3 diesel with a lift, big tires, nice wheels, lariat, the works. too bad it got totalled by some girl that ran a red light [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] guess it was about time for a duramax anyways!
