My F250 quad cab 4X4 power stroke gets 19 mpg. It’s running a 100 HP chip and cruises effortlessly at 75. Diesel is also much cheaper than gas right now so after you do the math to include the longevity of the superduty motor I will come out dollars ahead while maintaining a much safer mobile area for my family.
My trucks sensors are a little off, it can’t tell the difference between a tin can and a hybrid anymore. The cans and the cars are about the same size and shape.
Nothing works better in city traffic than a snow plow.

Go look at the death rate statistics per mile traveled of an F250.

Much higher than just about anything other than some sports cars.

If you are looking for a safe family vehical, the F250 isn’t it. If I remember correctly your odds of dying in it are about 3 times that of a Toyota Camry.
