And I swear I watched the needle drop when I started that beast. Damn, thsoe F350's dont get good gas mileage at all, especially when equiped with a plow and running in 4WD mode all day.

Thank god I dont have to pay for the gas in that thing though.

The worst past is that I do this every 4 or 5 days. :shocked: Talk about putting money into the economy.

My ugly-ass 2500 Sprinter van will generally get 22.5 mpg, but I have gotten as much as 26.1. Compaire that to my V10 Ford which would get 12-13 & I'm saving over $200.00 per month in fuel charges......even though diesel is more expensive at the moment. :thumb:
