At first I thougt it was going to be every 200 miles or so but I have been noticing it very often. Maybe around 50 or so miles. It also seems the computer milage calculator goes down by a tenth mpg when it does.
I was extremely pleased with my mpg's when I first started driving the truck but it has reduced a bit. Maybe my foot has gotten heavier as I've driven it more. Sure is fun to drive.

I have been under the truck and found no crimped lines. I also added a Ford sway bar and had to drop the skid plate from the fuel tank, I found the Def tank is behind fuel tank right at the rear axel. I would say after seeing this there is no way to put a 37 gal. fuel tank there unless you move the def tank somewhere else.

2011 F-250 6.7L, Extended Cab, 8' bed Royal Red, 18" wheels, XLT, rear view camera, step, and bar assist, dual alternators, power rear window, power mirrors. My truck came with the 37.5 gallon Fuel tank. The 158" and 172" wheelbases has the 37.5 tank, the 137",142" and 156" wheelbase trucks has the 26 gallon tank. I don't have a clue to why they all don't come with the larger tank. To the guys with the DEF issue, please let us know what you find out. Does anyone know if the new software does anything with DEF. My last two Ford F-250, have been the long bed with the extended cab, each have the larger fuel tank. The updated software used with the trailer brake controller is great. I've only taken one long trip pulling a 7 x 14 box utility trailer. Ran into a bad rain storm with high winds while driving through Kansas. It was rock solid. Once I reviewed all the videos on Ford's web site showing the new improvements. I know I had to have it. I just saw an add for a Dodge truck with a storage box in one of the bed fenders, it contained a gun rack. Looked like a nice option ($2000+) option.

Well guys here is my update as promised. The truck is using def at 2500 miles def is at 65 % full. Ford had to give them the teck info on how to determine def level. As for the regens they say Ford says regens on the trucks are being seen at 90 to 600 mile intervals, and fuel mpg is from 16 to 20.

Ford says truck is running normal with regens at 90 mile intervals. Dealer did nothing wrong it was just that Ford did not tell them how to check the actual level of def when they plug into computer. As for me and the dealer regens every 90 miles seems a bit extreme.

Regens every 90 miles is excessive IMO. Heck, regens every 90 miles on the 6.4 is excessive.
When Ford was marketing the 6.7, didnt they say that since urea is being used the engine would regen less than the previous model powerstroke (6.4). Less regens was/is supposed to be one of the positives of the 6.7. Am I incorrect on this?
How can they say that this is normal?
