Outstanding Family Truck
We have the King cab and have people looking at it, asking all kinds of questions and commenting on its good looks every week. The truck is a super hauler, looks great, fun to drive (Wife claims its her's) and is a perfect combination with our 40' toy hauler.
Junk
14750 miles and 34 days in for repair - ABS problems, cooling problem, loss of power, light bulbs falling out, hub caps falling off, can only use 33 gallons max of the 38 gal tank, 5.1 MPG towing 10,000lbs, 80MPH max speed.. This vehicle has to be the worst I have ever had experience with. I used to put 100,000 mi/yr on F350s and if I was still towing like I was then I would be out of business. Now because of 5MPG towing and 8.5 empty, I can't afford to drive it. On top of it all, Ford will not stand behind it and I am out of luck..

Ford should get a new motor manufacturer!!
I am 54 years old and had over 60 Ford trucks all which were diesels from the great 7.3 to the poor 6.0 the 6.4 ex Ford this message is for you you need to really consider the powerstroke manufacturer is junk you need to change your manufacturer of your engines from a contractor that uses heavy trucks and buys a new trucks every year up to 10.. you have given me no other choice but to go with the Dodge have tested all of the diesel trucks out there and iam buying 10 Dodge duallys you do the math I have 14 trucks in the shop as I am writing this that is ridiculous you need to read some of this and do a change I now am a Dodge company note I have tried to sell these trucks all right the Dodge dealership does not want to take these in on trades amazing that a company at your size will not do something about this since the 6.0 bring back the bullet 7 .3 very dish happy old Ford customer...

Towing 40 foot toy hauler
Purchased my 2008 F450 on a Tuesday, had the 5th wheel installed on Wednesday and left for the Florida Keys on Friday with 450 miles on the truck. We pulled the 40 foot toy hauler with 3 Harleys in the back, estimated 18,500 pounds and had no problems running in the tow haul mode. Great truck, but it does like a gallon of fuel. We averaged around 7.3 MPG on the trip of about 3,000 miles. My truck has 4.88 gears and turns about 2500 RPM at 65 miles per hour. We ran with the cruise on 70 most of the time. the truck now has about 8,000 miles on it and we love the truck except the mileage. We get about 11.5 MPG around town.
Not a real super duty
I am a car hauler. my max weight is 20,000 lb. I have 19,000 (5 months ) miles on the truck with 3 week in the shop for repairs on the cooling system. It has been hard to do business with kind of preformance.
