Real world fuel economy test of a 1975 F250 while hauling some weight around! The truck has a 390 FE motor w/C6 automatic thru 3.7:1 rear gears. I'm using the truck to haul scrap metal to the metal recycling center. I will fuel the truck up beforehand, then drive the scrap to the metal recycling plant and then drive back to the fuel station to refill the fuel tank and see how much fuel the truck consumed to make the trip. Will the ole F250 crack double digits? We'll see.
