Purdy trucks

My 2014 F-350 is not quite two years old and absolutely love it! That 6.7 is just sick with power. Had a 1997 F-350 with the 7.3 before... just no comparison... totally different world

I have a F 250 less than a year old. I use this as a daily driver. Great TV and dry sips the Diesel. Cheaper to run than my F 150 Ecoboost.

15.1 L / 100k - but I've got less the 6000 km on it - so barely broke in...

A buddy of mine's got a '14 F350 6.7 - he's seeing 14.6 L / 100k.

(that's 15.6 mpg and 16.0 mpg, respectively, for you Yankees...)

First off.......nice truck Dwayne. I hope you'll be very happy with it. We love ours. Quiet to drive and very comfortable.

Just driven mine along Hwy 2 from Olds to Calgary (not towing) at 110kph (70mph) and returned 13l per 100 km (18mpg).
Had it from new since early November and it has just hit 2300km's. I've only towed the Creeker for about 10km's after picking it up at the dealer and taking it to the storage lot for winter.

Thanks guys. I'm loving it. Just the peace it brings to my mind when I know I'll have plenty of truck for towing is a fantastic feeling. I'm getting about 14 mpg with combination driving. About half and half city highway and I'm a fairly aggressive driver.. It's only got about 700 miles on it now so we'll see how that goes.
Towed my old bumper pull the other day from storage to the house and it was like pulling my boat. No strain at all. I liked it.

"2016 Brookside 395RL"


Dwayne,


Is that supposed to read "Brookstone" in your signature?
