We have a 99 Ford 4 x4 1 ton duly crew cab (the mother of all trucks) with a 
Triton V10 and we get 13-15 per gallon with no trailer and about 10-12 with 
loaded trailer. Use to have a 97 Dodge diesel (non duly & extended cab) and 
it got the same fuel mileage. We did not feel the diesels were worth the 
extra $5k. Plus the V10 has some giddy-up and go.
