Took delivery today

Hello folks. Took delivery today of my new 2025 F250 crew cab with the 6.8. Drove it from a NH dealer to my house on Long Island 250 miles. Averaged almost 19 mpg! What an awesome machine! Coming from a 2022 Tacoma that I loved until I drove this monster. Its been 15 years since ive owned a full size truck and never owned anything like this. Planning on a truck camper in the near future and use this as my daily as well. Retired so the only commute is to the fridge. I really cant believe how comfortable I found the ride to be. Admittedly was a little nervous that my wife would find it too harsh but not at all. Hope this truck holds up and lives up to its name. First FORD truck fot me.
