New guy with a 6.2
Hey all. I just picked up a 2012 F250 XLT SC SB. 3.73 . It has 7k on it right now. I traded my 07 Mazda 3 for it. It's a very comphy ride I'm a little worried on the gas but that's the price for power. It should be good for work. It's the first 4wd vehicle I've ever owned.

You'll love the truck. Mileage will improve over time. I've went from single digits empty, to double digits towing small loads...

I've already been asked to get some pave stone. Still been zipping, still can't park for crap. I'll get there eventually, still love the truck not the gas mileage as much but got 14 on the last highway trip. She certainly made my day better going WOT with the windows down.

If you do get stuck pulling head first into a spot, line up by pulling up to the spot past the one you're wanting to get into (if there's a car there, don't hit it but pull up behind it), then reverse and whip the wheel the other way, you should be close to be being lined up to pull straight in... The backup cam and reverse sensors makes this a breeze. I remember doing this in my lifted 2000, it was not easy at all...
