'08 questions

I got a buddy that's looking at f250 supercab that has a 4" lift and 315's. Its got about 28k miles. Its a lariat and the radiator has been replaced. I haven't looked at the truck myself. What should he look for on it and what kind of fuel mileage can he expect? They won't $32k for it but I'm sure it could be gotten for a lil less. Thanks

I think you're going to get varying results here

I get 15mpg hwy with the stock 20in wheels/tires and get about 10mpg hwy towing my 20x8 enclosed trailer (approx 5.5k lbs) on the highway.

I have the torqueshift tranny and 3.73 rear.

results will vary greatly according to driver and how it is used.

I get around 13 city and 17 hwy unloaded and around 9-10 towing.

Yeah I was checking the thread on mileage out. I think he has decided to go with a older model anyway. Thanks for the replies.
