Hello everyone, first post on here. I went Saturday and ordered my 2012 F-350 Lariat SD. The big numbers sound so good. I traded my 2007 F-250 6.0L with only 16,900 miles on it. Wanted more muscle and suspension to pull our 11,600 lbs. TH camper. Can't wait to get it back and put that behind it and see the difference. I was told this truck is a beast at pulling!

23k on my 2011 F-250 6.7 in 8 months. Minor problem with shifting when cold in first couple thousand. Dealer did flash to upgrade the H. P. and shift points and all seems to work well now. 17.5 -18,5 hwy mileage w/ 3.55 axles. THE BRAKES SUCK! Havent finished dealing with the dealer on that yet. Anybody else not happy with their brakes? Overall I am so far very pleased with this truck! Actually am considering ordering a 2013 this yr. Just bought a 32' used Montana fifth wheel so now for the acid test! Off to the Texas hill country next week!

47,000 miles on mine. I drive it every day with a big smile in my face

Oct 2010 build date. Reflashed for improved tranny shifts. Replaced the tailgate Ford badge because the sticky tape was failing. Replaced an exaust temp sensor. Icon 2.5" leveling kit and a new set of tires. Drives like a dream.

58,000 miles so far on mine. Built July 2010.
In was in to the Dealer for the 400/800 flash, again at 35,900 miles for the steering osiclation and replaced the front stablizer. They also replaced a couple of the selenoids in the tranny and reflashed the tranny. Just stuff I wanted to take care off before the 3/36 part of the warranty ran out.

While they had the tranny apart, I had them flush and refill the tranny fluid. Oil changes about every 7500 miles as directed by the command center, Fuel filter changes every other oil change. New tires at 28,000 and about ready for another set of tires.

Mine is a daily driver that has more miles with a trailer than it has empty.

Great to hear the positive feedback on our scorpions and how some trucks are up there on the mileage. As for me, took it in for first service at 7,500 and just about to break 9k here soon. TRUCK IS AWESOME...

Only complaint I have is that I got stuck in the mud. I should have stayed out since I have stock street tires and it was real bad after the rain, so my fault...

My pleasure.. I was and still AM a noob on lots of things.. but the folks here on FTE older and newer vehicles have helped me SO much, where I can I try to contribute.

sometimes this is a lot better than being IN the shop (105 with no air is a real drag!) but I gotta get the red 56 on the ground.. brake master cyl work tonight..
