2000 V-10 Mileage increasers

I have a 2000 Crew Cab Short Box 4X4 V-10. What are the best upgrades to consider for wanting to increase fuel economy. I know that this vehicle will never get 30 miles to the gallon, just looking for a little better than 10. Let me know what you guys have done, and what works well, and what is just hype.

Thanks in advance.

Stay at 65mph or less. Be easy on the throttle.. These will yield bigger gains than any aftermarket part out there, and don't cost anything.

I installed a K&N air filter, and the mileage increased by 1/2 to 1 MPG. I know it's not much, but I think it's worth it.

2000 F-350 XLT 4X4 V10 5spd Ext Cab Short Bed 4.30 gears(well worth it!) Off Road Pkg Camper Pkg...etc.
