Ford dealer was touting much better loaded mileage with the 6.7 than the 6.4. It is better but not big as they initially claimed. I am happy with the truck, plenty of power and the new turbo gives it big acceleration.
i thought i read on ford's site for the 450 was 4.55 gears? or somethin like that

MotorTrend or some magazine did an article that said with a 1000lb load in the bed a 6.7 was getting 21mpg at 70mph.

suprisingly enough my mom's 2010 will get about 17-19 on the highway, its bone stock other then some look better mods, wheels, tires, chrom, etc... although my big brothers only got about 13 regardless of where and how it was driven, did a DPF delete and got about 18ish on average, our 6.7s are getting 19 stock, did a AFE stage 2 intake on my brothers we'll see if that hurts or helps it any

my buddy thats hauls a 40' g/n which weights around 10k empty, told me he averages 10.5 mpg out of his 450. not to bad. my 7.3 hauling the same stuff, gets around 11 average but i'm sure he has lots of power to boot!

My 2012 F-550 6.7 is getting 9.5 mpg but it has an autocrane mechanics service body, air compressor, crane, welder and alot of tools. Truck is 18500 lbs with nothing in the bed and is still a rocketship. It gets better mpg than our 6.0s and 6.4s with the same body
