Final report: The end of the road (and trail) for our heavy hauler

Ford F-250 Super Duty Limited

Even good things must eventually come to an end and there were definitely a few tears shed as our long-term ’20 Ford F-250 Super Duty pulled away from our driveway. This truck served us faithfully for more than 25,000 miles and proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that it was deserving of the Truck Trend Pickup Truck of the Year award. The Super Duty spent its time commuting to school, running road trips on the open highway, hauling bed loads of random stuff, running off-road trails, and towing trailers of all shapes and sizes. Basically, it was a big truck that we did big truck stuff with, and it performed every task we threw at it with strength and finesse.

During our final few months with the truck, we decided that it would be fitting to send the truck out the way it started its time with us, by going on an epic road trip. However, this time we opted to hitch up a travel trailer, load the bed with gear, and hit the road for a month-long adventure through the western United States. Our road trip covered 4,700 miles and the Super Duty logged an average of 12.6 mpg while running down the road with a gross combined weight (truck and trailer) of 18,300 pounds. Unsurprisingly, the truck’s intense diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) usage continued, and we had to top off the tank a total of three times, adding 12 gallons, during our trip.

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING

I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
