2023 Super Duty Release
- Thread starter 13COBRA
- Start date
Looks the same as the outgoing truck?
Definitely more flattering in a dark paint color and no front end chrome. The (presumably) higher end trim truck front ends look terrible, IMO. Maybe I’m the minority but I’d put the 17-19 front end way towards the bottom of a list of Super Duty fronts. 20-22 is the best they’ve had in a while
Meh.
I am, however, intrigued by the "HO" powerstroke. Ill be interested to hear the numbers.

The tech the bug 3 are putting in these HD trucks is more that what high end luxury vehicles have it seems.
I like it though. I couldn't tell much of a difference from the outgoing model but you can see where the changes were made in some of the higher trim models. If I was in the market I l'd definitely be looking at these new Superduties for sure!

Those side badges are ugly as shit. Think I’ll stay with my 22 for now.
If you read the specs on the fluid, it's designed for the heat. It's minimum temp is pretty high.
And isn't the service interval something like 150k miles? I want to say that's what my local dealer told me. Supposed to be a royal pain in the ass to do too.
10-speed is certainly a love-hate for me.
I bet 520hp/1200torque
In which application?
All mine ran way cooler than the 6R80's in gas engines
My silverado with the 10 speed got to 175degrees towing 5k this past weekend. Usually at 155-167
Brothers 20 Raptor also is in the 170 range unloaded.
They are often shipped low on fluid too. This can cause many issues. I checked mine right after getting my Ranger and it was 2 quarts down right from the factory.
It's love/hate for me too. Love it at anything 1/2 throttle and above or in sport mode (which with the RPM holding can become annoying in daily use regretfully), but other times it can make me cuss.
To each their own. I bought a '19 specifically because I didn't care for the new '20 front end. I do agree however the '23 is not going in the right direction.
Mine got up to 217 the other day, but I was pulling a tad heavy…
And yes, that’s with air bags…
Yep. I'm right there with ya.
- I'm convinced it hates second gear.
- I'm delighted when it uses fourth - Seems to require near perfect conditions.
- Overall silky smooth on the way up otherwise.
- 1700rpm on the highway is generally nice until I have to beg the thing to drop out of 10th in order for it to move its ass.
- 4wd + Sport mode launch is kinda fun and has surprised a couple people hehe

Yikes, that's pretty warm for trans temp.
"I'm delighted when it uses fourth - Seems to require near perfect conditions"
I laughed at this. So true.
About second gear, I have skip shift disabled, which kind of leads to another issue of the monotony of a sh*t ton of gear changes every time you take off normally, but it does help overall.
As for my 10 speed, which as I commented on above, I do not like much? One thing that helps a lot, is I ALWAYS drive in "tow haul". Bypasses the skip shift, and also allows the engine to rev to a reasonable RPM before shifting.
On topic of the thread, more Im seeing the new SD, and thinking about the key new features that have value to me? Im liking it more and more. As for the looks? Its OK, seems familiar to our 21, which is fine.

Yeah. I was taking it easy too, but that was about 30k combined…
my 22 trans shifts awesome...tuned. Ill hopefully be able to order a few.
