All of a sudden I am starting to feel a little better about selling my 95 F250 Powerstroke a couple years ago. Replaced it with a 01 Chevy 2500 4x4 gas burner. Highway mileage empty was similar, around 17 to 18 on either. The 01 only makes around 8 to 10 pulling a trailer, the diesel was 10 to 12.

The 6.2 is SUPPOSED to be a junk motor, but why does it make better mileage than the new ones? Only gripe was it WAS a little short on power in the hills.
