Used 2008 Ford F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab Consumer Reviews
Awesome Ride
This is the first diesel I've owned and love it. The truck handles very well for the size and the ride is comfortable. Currently not towing anything until the engine has about 10,000 miles on it, and then will tow 12K 5th wheel on weekend getaways. First tank I averaged 11.5 mpg, second was 13.5, and expect it to get better over time.
Better Truck
This truck replaced my 2003 F-350. What a difference! Night and day between the two New truck runs smoother and quiter. Great interior with plent of room. Have not pulled with it yet but will next spring when camping season starts. Can't wait.

Poor MPG on the diesel
The truck is great for sure. I have owned Ford super duty truck since they started. This 2008 is all around best ford F-350 out there, but I have 8k miles on it now and tody is the 1st time i pulled my 40 fifth wheel. The MPG stinks. I got 7.8 at 65mph. Yes I have the 4.10 rear end. I think as soon as my warranty is up I will pull the exhaust system out and change it. I have been told this will make about a 40% better mpg. When I drive the truck without pulling anything it gets 12.2 mpg at 70, 13.8 at 65 mph, 16.0 at 55mph. I know I bought the truck to haul and yes that part is perfect. My last 350 got 17 mpg at 80 mph, pulling a 40 trailer I got 10.4.
Awesome Dually Diesel
Great truck. I bought the King Ranch Dually Longbed 4x4. I ride is great and everything is awesome except the mileage. No more than 19mpg at 55 mph. If you go faster the mileage drops fast, 11mpg at 75. Looks and comfort are great. Parking is hard, but that's to be expected. Heated seats and stereo are also great. Cabin is very quiet and comfortable on long trips. Interior design is very nice and easy to use. Nice big AC vents
A Monster
This is my first diesel truck and upgraded from an F150. This truck has tremendous power and towing ability and looks the part. Just got back from an extended trip towing a 10,000 lb trailer in the mountains with an 800 lb motorcycle in the bed and the truck did great even after obliterating a deer at 60 mph. I did develop a funning turbo noise under extreme load and high rpm towing which is a concern, but have not had any other problems. Mileage under load varies from 7.5 to 10 mpg depending on wind and speed, but unloaded I have gotten up to 19 mpg at 70 mph which is better than my F150. It took about 5000 miles to get to that mpg.
