I have a 2015 F450 but live in Texas. 9.0-9.5 towing around 70 mph. I drive it daily back and forth to work and get around 17 mpg average if I stay below 70. Anything above 70 and my mpg drops to 15-16 mpg. The only issue I had, which really wasn't an issue, was USAA had to override something for the F450 vs. an F350. Only took a couple of minutes but they did want to confirm I would not be using it for commercial purposes. I have two friends with them also and no one has had an issue but we are all in Texas.
As far as towing, it's incredible and does an outstanding job. I just towed my Momentum 385TH from the Houston area to Gatlinburg Tennessee for the second time. It handles the hills, both up and down, very well. I've got about 33000 on my F450 and had 74000 on my previous 2011 F250. No issues with either truck so far. I'd get the F450 again and as long as in towing a big 5th wheel I'll stick with the F450.
