In 2012, the Ford F-350 6.7 diesel boasts a towing capacity between 11,900 and 15,000 pounds, which can increase by 800 pounds with the addition of a fifth wheel. Equipped with 400 horsepower at 2,800 RPM and 800 lb-ft of torque at 1,600 RPM, this truck averages around 20 MPG on the highway, depending on the load. Be mindful that the more you tow, the more frequently you'll need to refuel. It's worth noting that turbocharger failures have been a common issue with the 2011 and 2012 models, indicated by symptoms such as exhaust smoke, the check engine light appearing, engine whining, decreased acceleration, among others, so it's wise to stay vigilant.
