02 E350 super duty extended van . Gas hog but who is counting when there's plenty of room inside for 9 plus and towing a 22' enclosed?

2013 F150 Platinum 6.2L 14mpg, 11mpg towing. My father-in-law just bought the same truck with the little Ecoboost. He's not happy with the 17mpg; hasn't towed anything yet.

We used this mid eighties BBC Suburban when I first bought our enclosed. Definitely not for the faint of heart as it was solid in the single digits mpg. It had a 40 gallon tank and we stopped a lot as the kids were small.



Then we graduated up to one with overdrive and pretty much doubled the gas mileage though it gets 12-15 around town with out towing.
Id love one with the newer body style and an 8.1L. Not in the budget at this time. Though robzombie turned me on to a build of a 6.5L diesel so I am starting to study up on that path. I pretty much know how to fix most things on this body style as we have had several pick ups and a 94 1500 Burb too.

Like it says in my signature, a 2008 Ford F350 King Ranch with a 6.4 Power Stroke engine. Very happy with it and would definitely buy another one!

89 Chevy C1500 2wd with a 5.7,extended cab, and an 8' bed with a camper top. 21 MPG by itself and 17 with a 21' open trailer towing almost 7K of weight. Braking is a little scary but I don't drive over 55 with that kind of load.

I was running a 2001 Yukon 4x4 with the 5.3 and finally wore the old girl out @ 255K. Traded for a 2013 Dodge 3/4 ton Cummins 4x4. Can't tell anything is even back there.

I found a couple of 2005 excursion diesels and they are still quite pricey at $22k-$27k I wonder if the mileage would go up?

 

[TType85]

2013 Dodge 1500 Ram Express with the tow package (rated at 10K #). Haven't had the chance to tow with it yet but unloaded it sucks gas bad, 12-13 on the street 18-20 on the highway.

My brother in law has a 6.0 Excursion. They went through their share of 6.0 problems at first but it's been great for a while now. They tow just a small trailer but I think it gets about 16-18mpg. Around here Excursions are in pretty strong demand, there's nothing really like them on the road.
