What I'd really like, the military vehicles to go back into non-use. The price of diesel might drop...

EPA estimate is listed at 22-23.
Google search turned up someone who had a '10 diesel crew cab that typically got 14 city 20 hwy |

Hello... without the management crap. My 250 is currently getting 26. I'm happy over 20.

Expect high 20's and you'll be dissappointed. And hello, if you are getting 26 out of your 250, why would you expect the same truck with a different badge & rear springs to get better? If you are stepping up to a 2011, you may increase your mileage but why would you want to disassemble (read: void warranty) a brand new and unproven engine?

My uncle "claimed" he was getting "50" mpg with his Cummins diesel...I was like yeah OK. Dude was prolly looking at the instaneous fuel economy when the injectors were being turned OFF during a coast.

An F250 getting 26mpg? Please PM me your secret if you're not comfortable posting it here. I just can't even imagine that from a truck.
