I've heard they are great, but that is just hearsay. :D A friend has one and tows all sorts of mini excavators and skid loaders. His brother and father have 6.7s, and they said they are probably going to go with the gassers for their next trucks. All I know is they can't  be worse than the 5.4.

I have a 6.2 in a 2012 F250.  I bought it new with absolutely no regrets.  It has ~58K miles on it and the oil is changed every 7500 miles.  Fuel mileage depends upon your speed.  It will get over 16 mpg at highway speeds and it is sorta stuck on 13.1 pulling the sawmill and short trips.  It doesn't know that our 23' 5th wheel RV is even there.
