I say if you can afford it, go for it.

What I'd really like, the military vehicles to go back into non-use. The price of diesel might drop...

EPA estimate is listed at 22-23.
Google search turned up someone who had a '10 diesel crew cab that typically got 14 city 20 hwy |

Hello... without the management crap. My 250 is currently getting 26. I'm happy over 20.

An F250 getting 26mpg? Please PM me your secret if you're not comfortable posting it here. I just can't even imagine that from a truck.

Expect high 20's and you'll be dissappointed. And hello, if you are getting 26 out of your 250, why would you expect the same truck with a different badge & rear springs to get better? If you are stepping up to a 2011, you may increase your mileage but why would you want to disassemble (read: void warranty) a brand new and unproven engine?
