The last Fuel spike was when I bought my F-250 4x4 super crew with the 6.8L V-10.

Nearly as much torque as the diesel and $100 cheaper per oil change. I love the truck and bought it mainly for use as a tractor at our land to pull a 14' JD disc harrow, trees, stumps, etc. Pulls the disc churning 14" deep in rocky soil with no problem...gas mileage sucks at 13.8mpg on the highway and 8.9mpg in the city. Tons of room in the back seat and a nice long distance ride if you put some weight in it. At least the ride with the Lariat pkg is nice.
