F250 6.2 Highway, how is it?
On gas? driven 60 miles mostly highway of 60 MPH. Compared to the F150 EB, which from experience is about 18 or so. I did a trip in a loaded up 2012 F150 on the interstate and saw about 24 at 65 MPH, but the majority of the trip was about 21.
Looking for a new truck and finding some nice deals on Superduty with 6.2, dont really need that much truck, but they are cheaper than a like optioned F150.

You won't get Ecoboost gas mileage with a super duty gasser, but it won't horrible. Big V8, big truck. My F-250 is diesel, so I can't give you any examples. Also take into consideration that the 6.2L although powerful, does not put out near the low-end torque as the EB. So based on your driving style, the 6.2L will have to rev at higher RPM's to accelerate at the same pace as the EB. I like others would like to see Ford offer the 3.5L EB as a gas option for the super duty line.

Well I was considering one I saw, but found a much better deal on a nice Lariat F150 with the EB. Getting 20 MPG in it and enjoying it. Will enjoy it even more once I finish the Kicker install. Got the door speakers in and already can hear the difference!
Thanks for the input, pretty much confirmed what I thought.
