Hoping For Help

I just found this place and am hoping to get help with my 97 F350. I am in NM and have not found any help here with my gutless, fuel guzzling *&||||*&^% truck.

And what is it doing mileage-wise? Has it always been bad or has it started recently? Is it a manual (5-speed S5-47) or automatic? If automatic, is it a C6 or a E4OD? Is it a reg cab, extented cab or crew cab? 4WD or 2WD? Dually or SRW? 3.55 axle ratio I presume?

Thanks for the reply ! I tried to post a more complete description but I am not familiar with how to do it and must have put it in the wrong area. I will spend more time and try to figure out how to operate on this site. Just not very good at getting around on the internet.
I will get the info as soon as I can
