Mine averaged around 5.80s 0-60. It went 5.65 in crazy negative DA but that was on pump 91. It was a little faster on E85 but I had already switched to pump for the winter. This is a 502A with 3.31s with my heavier than stock wheel/tire combo and a sub box. Maybe 1/4-1-2 tank. @PW2150 your truck is just super quick. That stock 0-60 is 3.5EB territory.

Fast enough. It's been a few years, but many states limit is 65, 70 if lucky. Some rural areas haev 75 and I've heard stories of the Dakotas of 80 limit. 75-80 is standard in Europe, with Germany having no limit sections on the autobahn. I've never had issues merging, passing, etc. with the 5.0. It is actually overkill when you have no load.

I have 3.31 ratio and hit governor on autobahn very fast. MPG quickly goes down to single digits when driving at 106 prolongely though. Anything over 70 really kills it. Impossible to drive at 60-65 here. Best mileage I got was England, highway limit was 60 for country roads and 70 for the interstate. Hit 24 mpg.
How's it been having an F series where they don't sell them? Couldn't imagine them being too popular in europe given their leanings towards smaller vehicles. Now the mustang in germany -- didn't realize they had a following over there until I saw them importing the classics and restoring them.

don’t forget the axle ratio matters too.
To an extent yes, but with the 10R80 I think the difference to 60 is very narrow, and null/net zero by the 1/4 mile mark as the 3.31 taller gear should catch up. For around town and stoplight romps a 3.73 should eke out faster acceleration though.

Another data point, these guys got a 5.6 second run on their 2023 5.0 tester. Im shocked that these Screws would keep up so well with a SuperCab.
