I have a 99 F250 diesel and it has 189,000 miles. I don't plow but I still get 19 miles per gal. I too am looking for a new truck, not because it has mechanical problems but the ford body is JUNK!! The bed is falling off and the doors are rotted at the bottom. It has holes the size of my head at the cab corners. So I have been searching for an 08 or newer 250/350 and can't believe the prices. I also looked into a lease and they want $855/mo for a 250 diesel and 643/mo to purchase. I am looking into other options. I have owened a Ford for 22 yeard and would likr to stay with one but they are not making it easy. The search is on.
