I read these other reviews and am somewhat stunned by all the recall complaints. Mileage is ~19 MPG 70MPH not towing and with a Roll n Lock bed cover. Mine is an F250 Lariat (+Lariat value package) Diesel 4x2 ordered in August 2019 and picked up in Oct 2019 and currently has just over 29,000 miles. when it comes to hauling, towing and yanking trees out of the ground the old girl takes the cake! My 2000 is just a better truck even with the smaller 5.4L. I love the ride and the space, but the mpg is killing me at 15mpg when my 2000 f250 also gets 12-15! 19 years of improvements for the same fuel mileage? Kind of pathetic! Luckily Ford will cover it cuz it’s a widespread known issue tho. I have mine on the list for a new steering dampener to fix it’s death wobble but parts are back ordered “could be 2 weeks or 6 months” the dealership told me. Between that, the heat shield breaking drive shafts recall, and the death wobble I’m sad to say I’m a bit scared of how reliable this thing will be in the long term. I had my older 7200lb superduty on a trailer and the 2019 seemed to have a hard time figuring out what gear it wanted to be in even with tow mode on while doing 30-40mph. She’s pretty quick for her size too which I enjoy, I’ve had no running issues yet but honestly I’m not impressed with its Towing capabilities. Mine also has the pop up organizer under the seat which is perfect for grocery shopping, and keeping tools from rolling around. I love the fold up backseats, it’s just that much more cargo space. I’ve put 25k miles on it in two years and It’s been ok, the cab is very spacious, first thing people say when they open the back doors is “this thing is a limo!” And trust me it’s the best thing for moving. I got my crew cab 2019 F250 XLT with the 6.2L for 37k in 2020 with 22k miles on it.
