I have to say thank you WTW folks!! A great site for ideas and figuring. I am looking for more comments on the number of mpg on a F350 truck, newer than 2012 with a camper on it? With weight similar to a flatbed Hawk or Grandby. I see some comments about decent mileage with their diesels and so so on the gas. What does decent or so so mean? I found 2 comments 20 mpg-15 mpg for diesel. I have been searching and as you know it is hard to find a general idea of mpg on larger duty trucks. When I find a F350 at the gas pump, I ask how they like their truck? mpg etc. and so far found 4 people with diesels. Any more out there? Gas or Diesel owners?
I hope to buy one more vehicle for the duration and configure a flat bed camper on it. If diesel gets > 5 mpg than gas I may go that route. I don't plan on hauling a heavy trailer, just plan on putting the weight on the truck. I am not a lead foot any more, but I must say the newer diesels drive/ride a bit nicer than the gassers. I like math and "figure a bunch before the build/purchase"
Thanks for the comments
