Hello

We are new to the forum and are planning on purchasing our first travel trailer in the next year. I have been looking at a 2013 f150 Lariat with the 6.2L V8. Looked at the ford charts (axel ratio, wheel base, etc.) and says it will tow 9,500 lbs. We are interested in the Bullet 274bhs dry weight 5,095 max weight 7,585. My wife and I both love this truck it is in our price range used with 13,000 miles. I am however, concerned with the mpg. I know its low 11 city 17 highway, but that looks like it’s the same for the f250. Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately or fortunately, I have already fallen in love with this truck; it looks great and has all the features we are looking for. So what I really want is everyone to tell me that the truck is great go buy it.

Thanks,
JR
