Have you done any upgrades? We have one and it pulls great! However, we travel all over the place and it drinks some fuel! I think we have the same gear. At 70 we turn like 2600RPM, you do the same? Looking at chips and intakes to get more economy. I know economy and F-450 don't go hand in hand, but getting 7-8MPG is a bit tiring.

I have one with about 14K miles on it and the 4.88 gears. Mileage is improving a little but it still sucks. About 10 if you keep it down to 75 and empty, which I don't do. The ride on the highway is great, however around town it is pretty stiff. Nice truck with lots of creature comforts. Just uses alot of Diesel.
