DRW mpg vs SRW?
I am looking at an 05 F350 CC,SB,4X4, DRW and am curious what difference guys are seeing in mpg with the DRW vs the SRW trucks. I would guess it is minimal, but curious. I did a search and came up empty handed. Thanks

If you get a DRW more times then not it will be 4.30 gears and that is right in order to keep it at 2k on the tach you have to go close to 60 mph. I have a fun tune on my so it's hard for me to do that anymore, but such is life.
