[A/S] diesel mileage
Towing our 1979 @ 31' (app. 8,200 lbs loaded) for 15,000 miles so far
on this trip averaging 15 MPG while towing in all sorts of terrain. My
tow vehicle is a stock 2000 F250 7.3 powerstroke with 130,000 miles.
Plenty of power, no engine problems.
This is my second 7.3 L- the last one I drove for 250,000 miles and
when I traded it the engine was still as strong as ever. Can't comment
on the 6.0's but the 7.3 is a heck of an engine- built by
International.
Cheers,
Chris Koehn
