Advice Needed.....

Were you talking about a diesel? You asked about Gas mileage.

Yeah I said gas but was wanting to know about both. Looking for what is better and wont cost me a fourtune when and if it goes in the shop.I just want a truck I can depend on when I drive here in town or on a long distance trip.

New or used? Gas or diesel? Do you want cab room or bed room? If all you want is room, buying a gas f250 instead of diesel can save you close to $10k if you're buying new. If you want cab space, look at a Dodge mega cab.

Probably looking at used and I would like to have more cab room. Have two teenagers and when we go on long distance trips would like to be comfortable. And I havent even thought about Dodge.

Get a crewcab F150 with the 5.0, its more than enough truck. Ive got a 2012 FX4 and love it. Huge cab, great fuel mileage and smooth ride.

They look kinda funky, but you can't beat a Dodge mega cab for cab space. You might even get more cab room in a half ton Dodge mega cab than an F250 crew.

My dad has had several crew f150's and unless ya play twister in the truck.on road trips I don't know what you would need more room than they have....and if the need.to tow more than.the boat its cheaper still to throw on a set of.rear air bags to compensate for.the load then.you.can save $$$ on gas when.u don't have a load hitched

Yeah and a Dodge Gasser ya might as well just get an auxiliary fuel tank as much fuel as they suck down

If your buying used get 2011 or newer. That is when they came out with the new engines. Prior to that they have issues.
