My 2004 F350 4dr/4x4/long bed diesel weights in a bit more, but loaded
with family still under 8,000 lbs. Gets 18 mpg on hwy empty, with car on
open trailer gets 14/15 mpg and with a 28 ft enclosed trailer mpg drops
down to 10-11 mpg.

But it tows straight, stops when it is supposed to and that is all I can ask for.
