My truck is straight stock with the 3.73 gears. I average about 13 mpg combination around town and highway. I drove it to the beach and back which is about 160 miles or so, round trip. Averaged 15 - 15.5. I live literally about 5 miles from Mike at 5 star Tuning. He's doing an 87 economy tune and and 87 performance/tow tune for me on Monday. Hopefully I'll be able to squeeze a few more miles out of a tank. It's a big, heavy truck with a big motor, though. I don't expect a huge difference.

We just got back from a trip to eastern Canada from south central PA. Here's the info:
2011 F-250, 6.2L, XLT 4X4, 4.30 gears, weight of the truck with passengers and loaded for the trip was 7720#. 2000 miles towing 10800# 5th wheel RV over mostly interstate highway. Overall average 8.5 MPG. The best 1 day MPG over about 500 miles was 9.5 MPG, the worst over hilly roads, 8.2 MPG. The numbers came from the trucks computer but were verified by hand. I tried 92 octane for a few fills and did get slightly better millage, but not enough to offset the cost. No noticeable improvement in performance.
We were at about 85% of the trucks max load ratings so we only have a 15% safety margin instead of the recommended 20% so this is about as heavy a load as the truck can handle.
