New Ford Owner
Hello everyone, I am a new Ford owner so be gental 
. I just traded in a 95 Dodge Ram 1500 for a new to me 2003 SD 250 with a 6.0 PSD. I love it. I just came back from a trip to Bradenton, FL. Going down empty I got 20mpg and comming back with the bed loaded I got 17.9 and I was going several mph faster comming back. I am a tech head and love to know the little tips and tricks that make things work the way the should, and not just the way the OEM's want you to think they work. So I am looking forward to all of the forums and the tech talk. I want to learn how to get the best MPG I can out of this beast because I do alot of hwy driving. This is my first Ford. I grew up with Chevy's but would not buy a DURAMAX. I would have bought a Dodge but could not find one I liked. Belive it or not I found the Ford I got at a Toyota delership 
. Thanks for a getat site.
