When I bought my 08 F250 I was really happy. Nice Truck, well built and excellent ride for a fairly heavy Truck. But I have never been happy with the 6.4. Milage has sucked from day one and not gotten any better in 17000 miles. Have put a new plastic thing on the front that was supposed to help with mileage, it didn't. Tried Ford's Diesel fuel conditioner, no help either with mileage. Have tried 3 times to get an updated flash like the Build 3 Trucks, not avaliable. The only thing I can think to do is just take all that garbage off from the Turbo back. Dealer says then my warranty will be no good, Why? I have always had Chevy Trucks, this is my first Ford. And I understand the Dealers hands are tied by the Government on the emissions stuff, but can't somebody come up with a program that actually gives the 6.4 some low end torque and God forbid some better mileage. We also have a Dodge with a 6.7 Cummings, it doesn't get the greatest mileage either, but it puts the 6.4 to shame in torque. And it still gets about 3 mile to gallon better than the 6.4. And how about trying to sell this thing now, who wants it. $4.55 diesel at 10.9 mph without even pulling anything sure doesn't shout buy me. Sorry for the rant but this thing is really starting to work on my mind and fuel budget. One tank won't even go 300 miles anymore. I just hope someone out there has some sort of solution that can actually help without just costing more money.
