GOTTA LOVE THIS:

Our last driving exercise was a fuel-efficiency challenge. While some on the trip hypermiled their diesels over 28 mpg, we drove 70 miles back to Phoenix on rural roads and the Interstate 10 freeway near the speed limit or keeping up with traffic. The diesel didn't shrug a bit with 1,000 pounds of concrete in its bed while returning an excellent 22 mpg.

Looks like anotehr winner for Ford . I think the fuel mileage is going to be the topping on the cake for them, as IMHO that's a large reason people buy diesels

Damn. Seems like Ford REALLY stepped it up with this new diesel...that F-450 pulling 24,000lbs...up 7% grades is amazing and impressive to say the least.

Sorry but i have to agree with their comment....IMO the new Ram DRW's just look angry. I love it! But that will never take away from the fact my dream vehicle is an F250 King Ranch CC Short Box
