I have 05 F-250 Lariat crew cab, short bed.

I get 13.5-14.0 mixed, and i have 12,000 miles. Started off at 14..then went to 15..and now slowly back to 13.xx mpg.

Runs good though, so im not worried.

i think the general consensus for these trucks is around 13-14.5 mixed, if you drive normal. More if you drive like you're an old lady, less if you drive like a teenager.
