I traded my 16
6.7 diesel in November for a 17 gas. Loving my decision. Pulls acceptably. Less headache and worry.

I would love to see some pics of all you gas lovers out there.

 

 

Did some math work on fuel mileage, maintenance costs, ect. when I was looking, for the little I drive my truck, I estimated the fuel mileage savings I would get in a diesel would take at least 10 years to even out the initial added cost of the diesel with the higher priced maintenance included. Very happy with my 6.2.

 

That was the day I brought it home. I had taken that box off of my 16. I ended up not putting in on the 17 because the Box collected moisture somethingawful through condensation it ruined a set of tools. I'm loving all the long beds.

On vacation March 2018.

 

I have many favorites but this is a recent one.

 

sometimes I forget they offer gas engines.

 

2017 F250 Lariat CCSB 6.2L with 4.3 ratio.

At 25000 miles averaging 14.1 mpg on the dash...... On paper / calculator it's closer to 13.8 (dash over states every tank). I've had 3 diesels, 2 Ford and a GMC. If I really needed the tow power I can see it. But I don't. I traded a 5.4L F150 for this F250. It's my version of a HD F150.

My main ads are a dual compressor on board air system with Quick connect on rear bumper, 2 pair of backup lights, and I just put Rancho RS5000x on front n rear.

So far perfect. Fuel, oil change and rotate.... That's it.

 

 

 

Looked at and considered both engines and went with the 6.2L. More than enough power and payload for me. Tows great and provides all the cargo capacity and space I need for the five of us.
