Hi folks...
Well we've put on a bit over 2,000 miles in the last week and are now here at our winter home in the RV Resort in Gold Canyon AZ.
Here's a pic right at sundown...
For those interested in the performance of the 2015 F350 diesel --
Big-Foot did a great job. Our average fuel economy was as low as 7.2 with a slight headwind and as high as 8.7 with a slight tailwind.
Regenerations of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) were about every 350 miles or so and did not seem to impact fuel economy at all... I was watching on my ScanGuage-II for the Temp on the fourth EGT sensor and it went as high as 1180.. Funny thing is that the GPL was never over .8 and a lot of guys think that the truck won't regen until it is over 3.5..
This truck is strong as an Ox and I am well pleased with his performance.
Thank you to all our friends and family that wished and prayed for a safe arrival!
