Some of the top things I like about the all new 2023 Ford F-350 6.7l HO Diesel Tremor! More to come on what I dont care for!
I love mine. The power is amazing. And its really comfortable for such a large truck.
Great looking truck. Steps not only make sense but look good.
My thoughts exactly
Hands down the best Super Duty yet. Absolutely loving mine as well.
Couldn't agree more!
I've seen some people bashing the fords for their quality issues and how badly they are made and the quality control sucks and stuff, but ford's super duty , medium duty and light dutys are hands down the most tough trucks out there, lasting more than 150000 miles without a hickup
I believe it! Thanks for the comment
I wish that could be said for my ‘19 f150 king ranch. At 70k, it’s getting the cam phasers replaced as I speak (out of warranty too), at 50k it got a new transmission, at 30k, new turbos, passenger head rest rattled, got it fixed and it broke again a couple of months later, the drive seat warmer stopped working last year and at some point the leaf springs had to be replaced; all on top of the list of recalls. Tbh, I’m fed up with the p.o.s. and am considering something else after it’s out of the shop.
Great to hear about your experience. I have a 2023 F-350 standard output PSD, and that produces more than enough power for my towing needs.
I had a 2020 that ended up just being my daily for everything. I did love it. My wife and I were travel nurses and I had a Tundra TRD Pro that I had used for 3 years to tow all our crap all over the country. Once we bought an actual Cargo trailer and loaded it down with our stuff, it proved a little much for the tundra when we went through Nevada on those long inclines. So I used that as an excuse to get the F-250. We landed in Northern California at a gig for 2 years and ended up never leaving and became permanent staff - hence the truck becoming a daily driver. I felt that I no longer needed the truck since we settled and it was somewhat silly here in the Bay Area driving this behemoth around and scaring all the Teslas. So I traded it for a new Porsche Macan GTS with some nice options. Just took a 2 week vacation where we drove the Macan to Vancouver BC. Holy crap it’s not nearly as comfortable on long trips as I thought it would be. Seats are awesome, but not for 8 hours. It’s a blast to drive, but I never realized how much truck stuff I need to do here and there. My long winded question - do you think it’s just dumb to get back into an F-250 Tremor with the HO 6.7 if I’m not going to tow, but I am going to daily drive with some long trips and light off roading here and there - also I do art shows and need the bed for my display/tent. My other thought is just get the ‘24 regular F-150 Raptor. Still fun, but has the truck capability and comfort w/o the diesel maintenance.
Thank you for watching! Good info to know.
@@CTECH-REVIEW Sorry - that was a long winded question. Basically I'm asking your opinion as to whether you think buying the HO 6.7 f-250 is unwise if planning to just daily drive with no real towing is involved vs Regular 35 Raptor.
Im not the guy you were asking, but ill give you my 2 cents if u want.
Diesels are great in a lot of aspects, but id feel silly driving a 3/4 ton truck if i never needed to tow/haul (even lightly/occasionally). Sounds like a 1/2 ton would work for you, you wouldn't be driving a tank of a vehicle around empty daily. These things are monsters(as you know, u had a 2020 f250), they don't fit in regular parking spaces or smaller drive throughs, garages, etc. You mention a raptor, those things are nice. They're inherently comfortable because of the squishy off road long travel suspension. Plus you still get a bed to haul stuff. Both the raptors and super duty powerstrokes hold their value well, but i think the diesel does a little better. People complain about the cost of a diesel option, but if you pay attention to fuel prices in your area, figure you will get 30% better mpg with the diesel, you can do the math to see at what point you break even in fuel savings alone. Have to add in increased sales tax/reg./ins./maintenance. I think when i figured the numbers out a couple yrs ago, it would take something like 100-125k miles to make up the extra $9k option and other costs(gap between gas/diesel prices have widened since then). But, the thing is, diesels retain their value better than gas jobs. If you kbb any two 5-10 yr old trucks spec'd the same, with the same miles, one gas one diesel, you'll usually see the values are off by about what the engine option upgrade costed new. So you save money on fuel over it's lifespan, then get the engine option money back when you get rid of it. Hd trucks with gas engines suck on gas, it gets old quickly. 3.5 EcoBoost is a great motor tho, different ballgame than the big gas v8 mpg's. 3.5 eb loses its efficiency advantage over diesels if you tow heavy, but that shouldn't matter to you.
Might make sense to get the best of both worlds, 1/2 ton and diesel. Gm/ram have a diesel option in their 1500's now, idk if you're opposed to gm/ram, but that may suit you better.
Idk your situation exactly, so it's hard for me or anyone else to say what's best for you. If you can afford the truck in the vid and want one, i say go for it. Easy for me to say, it's not my money lol.
I tow/haul equipment on a daily basis, and I just like turbos and diesels, so it's a no brainer buying diesel hd trucks for me. On the other hand, i also love my little 15 yr old ford ranger fx4 for when i don't need big truck capacity. But, if i had to choose only one, it wouldn't be a compact 1/4 ton truck.
Thanks forthe insightful feedback exactly what I needed to hear.@@ctdieselnut

Just get a diesel. Life is too short to compromise if you can afford it! Beside, it won't lose as much as that Porsche SUV you got! It can't do 1/4 what a 6.7 Tremor can and you know it!!!
Hi there, watching from Zambia 🇿🇲. I have 2 rangers, an XLT and Wildtrak. This is a great review, I'm really fascinated about these big trucks, the F series. I'd love one but converted to right hand.
Thanks for watching!
Mine was showing in production last week! Thanks for the great videos.
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for the video. My '23 is a 7.3 because diesel doesn't really work for my needs. I love the truck and the steps are a great addition. No more tire climbing to reach into the bed. A month in and so far as comfortable or more than the ram 2500 I switched out of.
Thank you for your review! I test drove one last night and traded in my 2019 king ranch. I was all about wrap around leather until I test drove the ultimate package Lariat Tremor. That ride no doubt is ridiculously comfortable. I had to walk out of dealer half way through deal, decided to drive the same route in my 2019, and sure enough, the Tremor ate up the concrete joint thumping so well, I called the dealer back and said I was on my way back in. Ford has made me so proud, what they have accomplished in 4 years is crazy cool. Oh yeah, the notches in bumper and side wall are the main reason I wanted the 2023. Props to Chevy for getting that right. So glad Ford was humble enough to acknowledge and give us die-hard Ford Fans the same functionality. Great review! Thank you!!
THanks for watching!
Love mine. It rides great and the power is fantastic. I have basically same truck just not a Tremor. Mine is a tow vehicle for our RV.
Awesome, same use as our truck!
4000 lbs payload is pretty damn good considering it has the off-road suspension
I agree!
I am looking at a 2024 Silverado HD ZR2 3500. With that said, this truck is definitely worth the look as well. Looks like a beauty.
? Just 2500 🤓
All my old superduties rode so stiff. Picking up my 24 soon and I’m beyond excited.
Good choice!
That fuel mileage is double what i get with my 2015 Silverado 3500 gasser. Literally 3 times the torque numbers 140 more hp. I just cringe at that price tag but holy shit that power difference gotta be mind blowing
I wasn't a fan of the "glacier grey", but yours really looks nice. I don't understand why Ford doesn't offer some better colors, though. Personally, I like more chrome, too. I know that's not cool these days because of the enviro nazis, and climate change. I could care less. If I could find a Tremor in the "star white" or "rapids red", and lots of chrome, I'd probably buy one.
Thank you for the comment, I agree...I want to see some better colors too!
Love mine....just got mine.
F350 Platinum Tremor!
This is my 7th F350 (08, 12, 15, 20, 22, 22, & now 23)
4th Tremor
And this is hands down the best (and most expensive) truck so far!
The interior is a big step up.
cabin noise on tremor? Daily Driver? I'm looking at a 2023 Tremor with the 7.3 Godzilla engine. I only tow 50+ times / year. The rest is daily driver.
If that Ford blue oval on the grill stuck out any further it could almost be used for a push bar. 😂
I’m 2k into mine now, and I agree. About to watch your dislikes, but I can say all my dislikes are tech based… why do I have to choose my view every damn time I get in!?!
Thanks for watching! yes the view menu is annoying. I hope an OTA update fixes this.
Have a 2024 f250 tremor, platinum, high output on order now. With max recline seats.and all other options possible. Hope towing a 15k fifth wheel will be ok .
Will be no issue at all! I have a 24 F350 Tremor Platinum HO diesel review coming soon...be sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so you can watch!
I tow a 20000 lb camper with my 2011 no issues
The 2020-2023 body style was the best Ford SuperDuty. Certainly the best looking.
Thank you for sharing!
It’s a sharp truck for sure!!
I've owned chevy, Toyota and gmc and none of them come close to ride comfort and cab quietest vehicle I've ever owned- 2010 f150 crew cab 4x4 Platinum, 150,000 miles
Awesome truck just wish they didnt cost a 100k lol even a base model is 63 to 65
You and me both!
Lots of salt there. Did you have the chassis coated with protection? I’m getting mine done with waxoyl before
winter begins.
Yes sir there is, no I didnt...I power wash all through winter, but have had good luck in the past with Amosil EMP product to spray on metal in the under carriage.
Great review
Thanks for watching, and the kind comment!
putting a deposit on mine today!
Awesome I hope you enjoy! Thank you for watching, I have a lot of content on Superduties!
tire noise in the cabin at interstate speed?
Some noise, not great, not terrible. For me just not ideal.
Do you like the 90k price 😅😅😅😅
No way!!
The H.O. power fanboys are mistaken. That extra 25HP and torque are ONLY at 1,100 RPMs. At any other RPM there is no difference between the H.O. and S.O. If you think I'm lying, the dyno numbers are easily Googled, look it up.
I will have to check that out, thank you for sharing! Both are wonderful engines
These and the duramax are the best diesels out there. Ram is good, but the truck itself is garbage
Thanks for watching !
where are ths 7.3 2023 FORD's.. ford is up too no damn good.
Lets hope not! Plenty of 7.3l 2023 Ford super duties available at Dealers around me!
Ford absolutely SCREWED up the instrumentation! The 2022 & earlier had clear easy to read analog gauges! This has a bar graph for speedo & tach! Looks like a clown show!!! Even Honda has a better setup!!! If Ford designers are clueless, just COPY PORSCHE and be done with it!!! Clear needle on a dial face! Stop with the gimmicks - that tells everyone you have no game !!!
Ya, thanks for watching! I also agree I like analog gauges. I prefer the older gauges also. I do like that ford included much more instrumentation for temps/gauges than they did on the 22 and older though. Very nice looking in the Tow mode dash setup.
@@CTECH-REVIEW
Seriously, I want to get one of thes 6.7 Tremors as much as I hate the instruments.
Did you ever drive an earlier 2022 Tremors? You mentioned your suspension rides much better than the 2022 and I'm wondering what the difference are.
I did drive several 20, 21 and 22 tremors. Shocks, springs and Im told castor in front axle is different. 23 deffinatley rides better.@@LWRC
@@CTECH-REVIEW 👍👍👍
@@CTECH-REVIEW The front axle in the 2023-24 is a Dana 50(M235) compared to the 2022 and earlier trucks which run the Dana 60(M256). Not sure why Ford downgraded the front axle.
