Well I can't tell you what a Ford runs for normal but, the Duramax in my Chevy will run 600° empty @ 60mph with 2lb of boost. Pulling my trailer, EGT's will run about 750-800° @ 60mph. That is all on flat ground with little wind.
Max recommended EGT's on a duramax is less than 1450° sustained and if kept less than 1300° all the better.
It's nothing for me to spike temps to 1100° on acceleration. My trailer weighs in at a light 6100lbs. My truck is stock with no tuners, intake, or exhaust mods.
idling temp for my engine is about 275° in the winter, 325° in the summer. It takes less than a block for mine to cool back down after a highway run. When pulling into a campground, the EGT's are back down to normal idle levels.
I forget what the name of the Ford diesel web forum is but, they could tell you all the information you need or want.
