Auto windows sticking.
AC is not cold.
My only gripe is the miles per gallon. It is lousy - 14!!! The salesman said it would be 19 to 22.
I talked to the service dept and they tell me that they are hearing the same complaints from most owners.
However, all the salesmen in the same dealer are still telling potential customers to expect 22.
I have yet to find an owner that is getting anything different than the 14mpg that I'm getting. I now have 9,000 miles on it.
I have had really great mileage with my 250 Super Duty. I am getting an average of 17.5 overall mileage and it is still going up, that's fantastic compared to the Dodge I used to drive.
Fit and trim are also very good. This truck with leather seats, Towing Command Center, and all around great looks is fantastic. The ride for a big truck is good also, the only complaint I have and I don't really consider it that big of a problem is it's turning radius.
When it comes to power and towing, it is unbeatable. My friend has a Dodge with the Cummings Diesel and My ford out pulls and out runs it consistently. He is looking into selling his and buying a Ford.
I own a refrigeration company and anybody who claims to get 17mpg with there 6.0 powerstroke is fooling themselves and others. our trucks 2wd and 4x4 are getting 11mpg-13mpg, noting impresive to me, good truck lousy fuel economy. as for performance the cummins is a very good engine, just how fast must one accelerate and the speed limit is all the faster you can go. we are changing our fleet to the cummins, and I have owned fords all my life.
The poor MPG is due to not being broke in yet.
Diesels usually have a 20,000 to 40,000 mile break in period.
It is terrible while in the period, but once you're out of it, everything is fantastic.
