not too shabby...i'll snag a pic of our work F-550s we've got about 200 of them.. All 4x4s, helper springs running around 23K lbs+ day in and day out. They have HD AutoCrane bodies. What body are you running? What PTO are you using? we're using Muncies with great luck. They get rode hard and put away wet, every stoplight is WOT, running 80 down the highway and we get around 5 or 6 on ULSD.
