Poor fuel mileage
I have a new F350 Dually crew cab diesel 4x4.
Just took a 500 mile trip got only 10.5 mpg @ 70 mph. Does anyone have similar problems? The truck has 4.10 gears. I do not think it is worth the extra money for the diesel. A gas V-10 should get at least this mileage.

I've got a 99 V10 5sp 4.30s and get
10.4 winter and 12.8 summer at 60 mph. I'd like to step it up to about 70-75 interstate and see if it might do better,but I only drive 65 miles round trip to work daily with alot of in town driving,so I really can't complain with a truck this size.
