To OP, depends really on how much your going to be towing, diesel for sure with lots, 6.2 for not so much, mileage is great with the diesel but offset by the price of diesel and 12.4L of oil changes, I had a 6.2 f150, great engine, loved towing but it liked gas, had it tuned for 91 octane, so the price of diesel to premium isnt much of a diff, can get diesel cheaper if I shop around. In reality anything is good, as long as its a Ford.

as a super duty owner with the gas pod diesel is really the only way to go in these trucks I test drove the 6.2 little more power than my 5.4 but still a pig on gas I decided to go back to the f150 with the ecoboost for now I plan on a 25 foot travel trailer Intel I can afford the diesel I want. I also owe allot on my current truck wich made getting into the f350 diesel harder.
