Any guesses what size wheels and tires? They look small for 5.88 gearing to me - maybe he means 4.88

 

[Stopthevoices77]

No idea. He sent me this in an email...

"All 6.0 issues have been addressed.
I did all the upgrades 10,000 miles ago.
It runs great and gets 10-12 per gallon towing.
I changed the front and rear gears for better mileage and towing power."

Should get better mileage than that if the 6.0 has been built right I think - not a lot better but still

Maybe the gearing causes rpm's too high - right now my stock 6.0 gets 15 I keep rpm's down, but it can get 10 or less if I drive too fast for my 4.88's (55+ and it will start drinking heavily). Shop I'm taking it to says after egr delete and tune should get a few more mpg

 

[Stopthevoices77]

He said he gets that while towing. Also, that's a pretty big motorhome.

True dat - that's also a big price - there's a nice used actual ER for that ballpark for sale right now. I'd be scared to spend that much so I got a 4wd 6.0 F550 with a truck camper on it. No pass through unfortunately, but a solid rig for um - much much much less

Thing looks like it would get high centered on a logging road. Massive overhang
