Well, I just drove from Indianapolis to Kansas. I got 12 MPG on E85. On 87 Octane I got 13. But I was also travelling a lot of hilly road and going into a 20 MPH head wind. While in Indy I was running at about 15 MPG on flat highway.

 

That's a good 1000 mile round trip. How many miles you got on the truck so far?

 

It is actually about 1200! But, I only drove the truck back from Indiana. The stealership where I live in Kansas tried to pull a shady deal on me. I have guaranteed pricing through my bank (USAA) and once they found that out they tried lowballing me on my trade. So I tracked down a different dealer in Indiana (I grew up there) that gave me a very fair deal. I got the truck at invoice and got $18,500 for trade on my old truck. You can rest assured the Kansas dealer will be getting an email in regards to their shady business practices to screw over the Soldier. Nobody forced them to give guaranteed pricing, they volunteered to do it. Unfortunately for them I already knew what my truck was worth and when they offered me $14,500 for it, it spoke volumes about what they were doing. But I digress. I drove my old truck there and picked up the new one. I am at 1000 miles now on the new truck.

 

I created a profile over at Ford Truck World. For some reason I cant post pics on here. It keeps telling me file upload failed. If you go over to that site and look me up under the same name you can see the rest of my pictures there.

 

Good job! Glad you got what you wanted at the price you deserved. I would drive the new truck by the dealership in Kansas and show them how happy you are with their competition. If they try to say that the dealership in Indiana isn't competition for them, just tell them that the internet changes the game and that everyone is now their competition.

 

VERY TRUE! Heck I just drove 1200 miles to not do business with them. Plus, I have positive influence over 150 Soldiers. You can bet I will steer them clear of that dealership every chance I get. Especially when there is another USAA certified dealership 45 miles down the road.

 

6.2 is in the Raptor, I've seen it in a cutaway platinum so.... it fits!

 

I saw under the hood of a new 2011 SD this week! The heads & Valve Covers on this thing are HUGE!.........
