[A/S] Re: Fuel economy - all brand diesels



I have a 2004 Ford F250 SC 4X4 Short box with 6.0.  I get 24 MPG highway 
solo, and 17/18 towing my 78 31' Sovereign.  I get 17/18 round town normally 
and 15/16 using winter fuel.  BUT, keep in mind I use Canadian/Imperial 
measure gallons.  My opinion?  If you can afford the truck, the difference 
in fuel mileage is moot between the four listed trucks.  The newest Dodge 
that will soon hit the line, a 6.7 has phenominal torque values, but will 
probably get about four miles to the gallon.  We will have to wait and see, 
right?  Or I guess being Canadian I should say, eh?
