Friends 2015 6.7 f250 gets 16mpg highway. Other friends 6.4 f250 that's deleted and sct tuned can get 20mpg highway. driving easy. 2010 duramax upgraded fuel pump. deleted. h&s tuned can get 21 highway with me driving. 13mpg towing 21' legend. These are gas pump with calculator numbers. Never trust the dash mpg calculator.

By the way I have a 2005 Avlon with 146,000 on it for sale if anyone needs a car Brad Smith

For those that want to race tow vehicles, are you going to race with or without your boat in tow? Let me know when yall are going to the track, I want to watch. LOL That should be fun to see. Actually the thread was started as a survey on who owned what brand. Lol, this ^^^ Thread derailed...
