guy yelled at for driving big gas hog truck (lol)

I have a Ford Excursion 4X4 Diesel now, it gets 22MPG so it does pretty good. It would tow our boat up the Baker Grade 70MPH @1900RPM. It has a PPE Programmer in it 10 Stage, I only have it on Stage 5 with no changes to the transmission shift, other than that it is all stock. That big azzz thing gets great mileage and most diesels do, those Tree Huggers are Wack!

Mine gets 16 if I'm lucky- usually 14. When I tow the Duster up the hill to the track, I get 9 or 10. The 6.4's with the DPF get terrible mileage. I want to get an Edge or Blackmaxx for it to see how much better it gets. Is the Excursion the 7.3 or 6.0?
