Me upgrading my truck this year from a 1995 to a 2005 and finally getting 4WD!!!!!!! RUclipsrs upgrading their truck be like "Went from a 2019 to a 2020 to a 2023". Congrats! The poors salute you!
Excellent! -- QUESTION -- You were about to say that your MPG would be better on the highway but you changed conversation. Can you tell what your mpg would be on highway at 55 mph and at 50 mph? Would love to know that as most people give the MPG at 75 and I was told that there would be a huge difference. What about with the 3:55 gears.. any idea what the mpg would be at those spreads? Thanks a lot!
I’m not sure at 55mph (one would cause an accident going that slow on GA highways) but with everyday driving I’ve lost about 0.5mpg moving to the 3:73 rear end.
@@WanderingWeekends ,,,LOL.. I remember hearing about "double nickles" in the 1980s and the 55 speed limit. I always thought that MPG was computed at 55 or 60. But all this 75 and 80 stuff is going to kill MPG. Would you get 18 or 20 at 55? If you had to guess?
If u like function, get the retractable step that goes under the bed step, its awesome if u're working out of your truck every day!!! It may look a little goofy & kind of costly, but for me, totally worth it, works really good!!
Awesome truck! Never been a fan of silver trucks but I like that color. I have a Ram 2500 gas now and the day I get rid of it will be the happiest day of my life at least in my truck world. I too had bad experiences with GM but I'm thinking of going back. My buddy has a 2024 2500 gas and the 10 speed tranny has made a huge difference in towing power.
Very nice truck. I followed you very closely when you went from the diesel to the 7.3L. I ended up ordering my '21 F350 XLT with a 7.3l gasser. NO REGRET's ! I was going to get a F250 but could not get it with a 3.73 rear. My options were 3.55 or 4.30. For $1700 I went to the F350 & gained 1k# load cap & 3.73. Well worth the $$$ Since 90% of my miles are towing a 8400# tt I'm really glad I did. I've had the 3.55 before. Empty it was fine, but towing it was just not working for me. Nut for nut; bolt for bolt F250 vs F350 are identical except the overload spring & rear gear option. I installed wheel well liners, shorty antenna, dampening strut to the tailgate, Weather teck's..
@@thejuiceisloose8703 If you are asking me; I rarely run empty but the few times I have I'm getting ~13mpg's in the city; 17+ empty on the freeway. Towing my trailer I have averaged ~10.3 mpg's going up & down a lot of hills & mtns here in the PNW. A 4200 mile trip to AZ & back I ave 10.3. I have got as low as 8.5 bucking wind & 13 on a pretty long straight flat run. tire size = 245/75R17
@@kingrider75 when I was going thru the gymnastics of ordering a new truck (7.3l gas); I found in '20, '21 & '22 the overload was only on the F250 Tremor or the F350. I guess it could be a dealer add or aftermarket? I did look at ordering the F250 & then adding it later. It was the same cost & you do not get the certified higher load cap. For me, it wasn't the overload, it was the 3.73 rear that I wanted and it was not an option on the F250.
Ordered a 7.3 350 Drw in Feb picked it up in April ans ir went back to the dealer literally 2 weeks after I picked it up. ALL and I mean All the lights would stay on after I shut it off and walked away. Stayed on till the battery went dead. Took a week ans the found the light control module was bad. Replaced and no issues. At 6k and no other issue . I like the 7.3 . Mine is an xlt and I added some of the lariat options. I think it’s a keeper.
Love the truck Cory lots of cool options but I’m still happy with my 2003 dodge Cummins dually I’m currently driving about 30 Kilometres to and from work getting 14.8 miles per gallon 👍
I have a 23 6.7l.. I'm not at all impressed with all EPA crap on these, seems like a incredible waste. It's a federal law to remove it of course or delete, but the government trucks are deleted... hilarious.
I love that big screen and like the overall looks of this model. I have a 2021 Lariat with the 7.3, FX4 that I bought to pull my 30’ TT. I love my truck but you got my attention with the comment about how much better the ride is in your new one. Mine definitely rides like a truck compared to my F150 I had before. Oh well, it pulls my trailer like a boss! Nice truck brother, congratulations!
I think it is funny what different people miss when go down trim levels. Unlike you mine was the auto climate. I got used to the key again without too much trouble.
I wish they'd put adaptive cruise control on all these trucks. It's the best option I've had, but when I went from an 18 Lariat to a 21 STX F350 dually it wasn't available.
I have the identical truck. My infotainment screen dose the same. I haven't taken my truck in for this concern. Soon i will. I agree with you very aggravating.
Just updated from a 20 xlt with 6.2 to a 24 xlt with 7.3…. Haven’t towed yet, but can definitely feel seat of pants difference. The 6.2 was ok, but could really tell there was a heavy camper behind it in the mountains of WV. Hoping the 7.3 and 10 speed make it better. (Camper is 34’ and 8500lbs) so within 6.2 territory. Anyways great info video, and helped me make the leap to the 24.
Is the rear seat cover in the description? I looked on the Amazon store you guys have and would love to purchase one, it may be there but I couldn’t find it. Let me know which brand seems to fit very well. Thanks!
You have to try out the Pro Trailer assist. It's is amazing and kind of eerie how well it works. I am also upgrading my Ford truck to be able to have a true TPMS system that is integrated in the dash and works with the RV trailer.
@@Blakehx There are a few kits available. I bought the one with the TPMS and trailer yaw sensor which cost about $480. I did not get the camera kit since I already have a wireless camera on the RV.
Great video. I can't get past the look of the box and bumper steps. Wish there was an option to delete in higher trim levels. Would love to upgrade to a 250 for the greater towing ability over my 150 but I know I'd hate it every time I walk up to it and see those steps..... yes it would bother me enough to overlook everything else that is amazing on the truck.
Those electronic gauges and screen would scare me. Too much to go wrong and the whole system is down. Call me old school, but there is something satisfying about turning a key and having an engine come to life. Good looking truck
You realize that digital screens have been common for 20 plus years in vehicles? Definitely not a concern these days. Heck, any gauge digital or not can stop working
Appreciate the review great looking truck. As far as the tailgate down camera its only offered on Platinum and Limited it would be nice if it was standard with all trims. I just recently ordered a 23 F350 Lariat Ultimate Tremor with the 7.3L and 4.30 gears supposed to be in production on Aug 7th.
Well I’ve been watching your videos on your truck and I bit the bullet and traded my 3500 ram dually 6.7 Cummins for a f-250 7.3 gas and I’m shocked we pull a 38’ open range roamer weights about 11900 and it pulls it very well Good ride down to the costly Cummins Thanks
I’ve been waiting for this video, was wondering why you upgraded, makes sense. Sucks the screen is giving you issues. I’m not in the market, but may be if my Hemi doesn’t handle us upgrading trailers. I always want to stay up to date on all the truck brands.
For anyone in the market for a HD gasser. I'd recommend giving the independent front suspension 2024 Chevy/GMC 2500HD 6.6L L8T w/ the 'Allison' a chance. I've owned a 2022 F-250 7.3L Lariat w/ 10R140 and now a '24 GMC 2500HD AT4 w/ Allison 10L1000. I definitely think the GM rides smoother, powertrain is quieter and overall gives a more refined feeling. For what its worth, I've been Ford since 1998 but I'd buy the '24 GMC again for sure!
That constant resetting of the 12" display is a common problem. I owned a 21 F-150 and now a 22 F-150 and they both had the issue you talk of. Both also had a problem with changing radio stations on their own. The 22 has a random problem with the bluetooth connection and my phone. Often incoming phone calls are so scratchy sounding I have to hang up and call the person back. Seems like each time Ford does an over the air update to the system new issues arise. Both pickups were back to the shop over these issues but were never fixed. It is aggravating but still hoping Ford gets the software issues fixed as I have a 23 F-150 ordered. Good luck with yours.
I must be an exception on the issues with thw 12 inch screen. Have a 22 F-350 Tremor and the onky time it did anything wierd was when it updated. Had just patked and the whoke scrern went dark. Was able to get it to come back on and it did it again. When i came back out it was working fine had some features it did'nt have before. Realizing it had installed the update.
The park brake auto applies if you park on a hill. I could be wrong, that's what I've noticed so far. When you back up to the trailer are you on a hill?
I've read that Ford is having all kinds of problems with their infotainment system, they are defective, screens lag, freeze, are off center, etc., and they are lightyears behind General Motors in this department.
On our 2021, we got an XLT and the dealer worked add on leather as part of the deal with Katskinz. You can get about any color you want. We matched the color to the interior trim. Good to know on the difference between 3.73 vs 3.55 which isn't much.
@F350DuallyD To me they look the same as the leather you would get in a Lariat package. It is not going to be like a King Ranch, but my wife and I like it.
i've came across your channel while doing research for my new super duty. I do not tow anything 99% of the time, and i have never owned a diesel truck. Would you recommend or persuade someone to get a diesel vs gas? would it make sense in my case, and does it require more maintenances for diesel with DEF?
That screen is one of the main things that made me get rid of our platinum f150. It did the same thing you’re getting, holding down the power and fast forward will reset it sometimes I’d do it 2 times in a day. The last straw was when it somehow forgot I had a trailer attached after pulling away from a rest stop, and had a chair fall of from camper in front of us went to brake and swerve and where were my brakes? I had no trailer brakes. Few weeks later it happened again pulling out of storage, had done the whole set up screen froze and no trailer brakes pulling up to a light 55mph. Reset the screen and it was fine. Traded it in following weekend. 😅
There is no AI with the parking brake; whenever you use the zoom for the trailer view, the truck knows at that point you're trying to hitch up and applies the parking brake. That's nice, but ideally the parking brake would apply every time you drop into park regardless of hooking up or not. You're stopping, in park, truck can't/shouldn't move anyway, just apply the brake automatically. My ram works that way though it can be turned off I don't see why somebody wouldn't want it to auto apply. I've used handbrakes and parking brakes every time I park (like we're supposed to) for like 30 years now so having it automatically set instead is just one less thing to think about.
Thanks for the video. I’m glad you went over the things normal people want to see, and since you bought the truck it’s a real world review. I’m looking at a similar truck just missing the power on board and pro trailer assist. I was going to ask what you paid, thanks for going over that. I’m hoping they go under msrp a tad, but we will see. I have the weather tech mats in my current truck and after a few years they start getting out of shape, I think this time I’m going to try the ford rubber mats. Nice truck, good luck on the computer issues. That’s one thing that scares me as well, I’ll be coming from an 08 f150 with no fancy tech…major upgrade for me.
Good looking truck. I've got a 2019 F250 with the 6.2 gas. It does really well towing our camper but I've considered an upgrade. The 7.3 is high on my list when the time comes. I could see a lot of the features of this truck being game changers over my current.
@@englishenator I am happy with my f350 6.2 gas. But I also only heavy tow 13000 lbs 20 miles round trip. Where the long distance towing is only 5000 lbs. My guess is you did not get the 4.30 rear. I think that made a big difference on my truck. The 4.30 seems to add enough torque.
You’ve earned the views and subscribers with all of your good videos. Many of them have helped me. Thanks. I will admit I like to see in your videos, ‘What would Cory actually spend his own money on?’ rather than sponsored or gifted items, but I also recognize that’s just part of having a RUclips channel.
Very fair point. I do like to point out a few things about the gifts. 1. Sometimes when folks use their own money they feel the need to defend the product OR have unrealistic expectations from the product. Having nothing invested I feel like I can give a bit better perspective. 2. I've done a few vids blasting gifts I have received... haha. 3. Many of the videos I do with the freebies are simply to introduce you guys to a new, quality product. Everyone's tastes and preferences are different. I don't want to limit the channel to only things I find useful. If its good quality at a fair price I am happy to introduce it. All of this said I completely understand your point. Its a fine line to walk. In the end the viewers trust is ALWAYS #1.
Nice truck, I just got the Lariat 350. The ride is great, which is way better than I anticipated. It actually rides better than my parents’ GMC AT4 1500. I’ve got the 3:73 rear end and average around 16 hwy in ECO mode. I haven’t had the issue with the screen. I’m assuming though it’s much like the new tech in LCD / LED tv’s where it does a pixel reset to prevent images from burning into the screen.
I’ve spoken about its towing performance but nothing super in depth. It’s a great tow vehicle for my needs. I feel like anything up to 12-13k wouldn’t be a problem at all and a comfortable tow. I’d definitely go 3:73 rear again.
Great video, I have a 2022 f-150 and has the same problem with my screen since I picked it up, screen rebooting pretty much every time I start it ,as well as the radio keeps turning itself off. Just got my regular service today and mentioned it again so they’ve done a bunch of updates to the modules I guess. They said if this doesn’t work the next step would be to replace the needed module.
Good to know that it didn't leave you on the road side. Did you have any problems with the last truck I have a 21 7.3 love it so far. The tech is awesome on these new trucks but worries me. Great video.
@WanderingWeekends Hey Corey, do you have an update for your Sync system situation? I have a 2020 Godzilla and ever since the last Sync update have had the same issues.
I'm just ordering my 2024 F350. Still on the fence about the 6.7 or the 7.3. And since I'm going with the Tremor I'm locked into the 3.55 gears for the 6.7 or the 4.30 gears for the 7.3. I have to decide soon. What did you not like about your 6.7 vs your 7.3?
Great question. I was tired of worrying about “limp mode”, failing EPA required parts, the drama over diesel prices, waiting on diesel pumps to become available. DEF, insane repair bills, and knowing I paid $10k extra for something I did not need.
@@WanderingWeekends I appreciate the response. I have the same concerns but don't know anyone with a 7.3 to compare to. Thank you for this video and your opinion on the two
Hey bro nice truck. That 7.3 is ok if ya like stoping at gas stations all the time. Me I'm a diesel guy. I like the power and the mileage that a diesel provides. There's nothing like stepping on the gas pedal and hearing that big diesel goin to work when ya got a heavy load behind ya.
I think the maintenance on the diesel with all that emissions stuff would ture me towards. If you talk to one of your friends real nice when that thing goes into limp mode they will come with there gas motor and tow you to ford I hope you don't have an engine problem it's sad to walk in and see the cab and frontend off the truck so they can get to the motor
Love this video! I'm currently shopping for this exact truck so this was super helpful! I've been trying to compare/contrast the 7.3 Godzilla vs the Powerstroke Diesel and I think for me personally I'm leaning the Godzilla but I was curious more of why you went to the diesel and back to gas again? Thanks again!
Hey great vid, I’m looking at going from a 2017 F150 eco boost (keeping my Grand Design tho) now I am retired I want to move up to a 2024 F250. Was really looking at the diesel but now that I’ve seen your vid I’m looking more at going to the 7.3 …. -- I also use the PoPride Hitch and can say I love it, thanks for the vids and Happy Camping.
Thanks for the info. I have a 2022 RAM 3500 6.7 diesel. I an also thinking of going to a gas engine. I've been having trouble with the radio also. Keeps losing presets and other weird stuff. Dealer says it's a known issue, and RAM is working on it.
I also have 2019 6.7 F350 Lariet. I hate the adaptive steering. Always fighting me to turn back to neutral. Or just driving around making turns in the city after a long day at work. I ordered a 2024 xlt and I pray the steering is easier or I won't take it. I'll go with Chev. their 2024 3500 has such easy steering. I was shocked.
New truck prices are insane... if your using it for a daily driver, the mpg just seems insane horrible. very nice truck though. My 6.7 I drive daily can get 17-18 in town, then 23-24 on the interstate unloaded. but the prices on all of them are just ridiculous, I believe FORD is intentionally marking this stuff up to subsidize their electric. I don't think the chip shortage is as legit as they claim.
Ford needs to see what world class digital instrumentation looks like and see what Porsche has done on their vehicles!!! The digital speedo and tach look like a joke done by high school students!
Well, not much to chose from here north central Florida and going to big cities (Orlando, Jacksonville, etc) has proven extra/over charges. I'm in no rush...I got my 6.2L 2019 XLT Premium package w/FX4 May 2019 and did not really paid attention to the window sticker... A few months ago, was reading it and found out it had the 10kGVRW upgrade, 4.30 axles which make this a 15K max towing capacity truck. I was under wrong impression it had the 3.73 axles. So is like getting an upgraded truck without $ out of pocket! It only has 30k driven miles and looks like new, even though sleep exposed to the sun.
I had the same issue with my 2019 f-150 where I had to reset it constantly, not as much as yours but at least every couple of weeks, I honestly think is a software issue on Ford's ew trucks/vehicles, I no longer own the Ford and don't have those issues on my current vehicle (Honda). Hopefully they can get yours resolved and you get to enjoy your new truck.
So when you get in the truck does the menu on the speedo screen come up every time? Also have you had issues with the collision assist come on when pulling in a parking spot or very slow crawling traffic? It will apply the break out of the blue.. I have a few other issues with my King Ranch.
@@WanderingWeekends Wasnt sure if it was that one or not. I just picked up my 23 Lariat 6.7 yesterday. I dont have the sports appearance package, so not sure how its gonna look with the chrome grille. I have silver too so this helped give me a good idea on what itll look like. Thanks.
Honestly not bad. My 2004 Lexus GX470 gets around 14 consistently around town and low 20’s highway. It has 4.7 with a fraction of the power and full time AWD. Pretty wild considering how close their fuel economy is.
Wow, nice truck. I wish they'd put some of that fancy stuff in the Chevy Express vans. I guess they assume it's going to be a work vehicle and workers don't need luxuries 🙄 Love the van as our TV, but it would be nice to have some fancier amenities.
I absolutely love my 2020 F250 XLT but that tech you have with this new one makes me jealous. Where did you get the back seat cover for the pets? Looking for something similar.
Me upgrading my truck this year from a 1995 to a 2005 and finally getting 4WD!!!!!!! RUclipsrs upgrading their truck be like "Went from a 2019 to a 2020 to a 2023". Congrats! The poors salute you!
😂 I know right
What ever happened to keeping a truck 10 to 15 years ? All these youtubers are about the same anymore. Talk in vein.
Why salute them! they are the reason auto manufacturers cheap out and build trucks to fail after warranty expires.
I like people who only buy new trucks, because they sell used trucks, and I only buy used trucks
I had a 2019 f250 6.2l and I worked at walmart bought used with 152k miles $570 a month and here eventually looking at 2024 or 2025
Nice truck. I just bought a 2022 F-250 Lariat short bed (traded in my 2017 6.7 Power stroke long bed). Good luck with it.
Drive a 7.3 w 4:30 gears !! You’ll love it !!
how much worse is the MPG?
@@kona6451 it’s a lil better actually. Took off those 35’s and went w 33’s , lighter tire.
13-15 mpg with the wind at your back, 6-9 towing but it’s great? Needs 100 Gallon tank.

Nice truck for sure. I have the 7.2kw Pro Power in my F150 and it comes in handy when camping or for backup power. Be tough to go without now
Those electronic gauges and screen would scare me. Too much to go wrong and the whole system is down. Call me old school, but there is something satisfying about turning a key and having an engine come to life. Good looking truck
You realize that digital screens have been common for 20 plus years in vehicles? Definitely not a concern these days. Heck, any gauge digital or not can stop working
Appreciate the review great looking truck. As far as the tailgate down camera its only offered on Platinum and Limited it would be nice if it was standard with all trims. I just recently ordered a 23 F350 Lariat Ultimate Tremor with the 7.3L and 4.30 gears supposed to be in production on Aug 7th.
It’s also on king ranch
Well I’ve been watching your videos on your truck and I bit the bullet and traded my 3500 ram dually 6.7 Cummins for a f-250 7.3 gas and I’m shocked we pull a 38’ open range roamer weights about 11900 and it pulls it very well Good ride down to the costly Cummins Thanks
Congrats!!
I’ve been waiting for this video, was wondering why you upgraded, makes sense. Sucks the screen is giving you issues. I’m not in the market, but may be if my Hemi doesn’t handle us upgrading trailers. I always want to stay up to date on all the truck brands.
For anyone in the market for a HD gasser. I'd recommend giving the independent front suspension 2024 Chevy/GMC 2500HD 6.6L L8T w/ the 'Allison' a chance. I've owned a 2022 F-250 7.3L Lariat w/ 10R140 and now a '24 GMC 2500HD AT4 w/ Allison 10L1000. I definitely think the GM rides smoother, powertrain is quieter and overall gives a more refined feeling. For what its worth, I've been Ford since 1998 but I'd buy the '24 GMC again for sure!
GM IFS is always shot before 100k miles
I’ve never had any “premature” wear issues with any IFS,…and for sure not anything around 100k.
Yes, GM is much better! I’m going back to my Silverado! Never again Ford!!
Nice Truck, I have a gas truck also. No need for a diesel truck to drive every day and to tow a few times a year. I put gas in it and go.
That constant resetting of the 12" display is a common problem. I owned a 21 F-150 and now a 22 F-150 and they both had the issue you talk of. Both also had a problem with changing radio stations on their own. The 22 has a random problem with the bluetooth connection and my phone. Often incoming phone calls are so scratchy sounding I have to hang up and call the person back. Seems like each time Ford does an over the air update to the system new issues arise. Both pickups were back to the shop over these issues but were never fixed. It is aggravating but still hoping Ford gets the software issues fixed as I have a 23 F-150 ordered. Good luck with yours.
Yep, scratchy phone calls here too! Ugh
I test drove a brand new identical optioned truck. I freaking loved it and will be getting the deal wrote up next week.
I must be an exception on the issues with thw 12 inch screen. Have a 22 F-350 Tremor and the onky time it did anything wierd was when it updated. Had just patked and the whoke scrern went dark. Was able to get it to come back on and it did it again. When i came back out it was working fine had some features it did'nt have before. Realizing it had installed the update.
The park brake auto applies if you park on a hill. I could be wrong, that's what I've noticed so far. When you back up to the trailer are you on a hill?
What brand of hood protector did you buy? I'm looking for one for my 2023 SD.😊
Straight from the Ford site. The Lund brand.
I've read that Ford is having all kinds of problems with their infotainment system, they are defective, screens lag, freeze, are off center, etc., and they are lightyears behind General Motors in this department.
On our 2021, we got an XLT and the dealer worked add on leather as part of the deal with Katskinz. You can get about any color you want. We matched the color to the interior trim. Good to know on the difference between 3.73 vs 3.55 which isn't much.
Do the Katskinz fit well, look good and feel good? I've seen them advertised.
@F350DuallyD To me they look the same as the leather you would get in a Lariat package. It is not going to be like a King Ranch, but my wife and I like it.
I just got an email from Ford that my F350 Lariat Ultimate 7.3 is scheduled for production. Iconic Silver Metallic as well 👍🏼
Congrats!! Sweet ride.
I got one email for my 2024 in July said will be built in October an haven't Heard anything since
i've came across your channel while doing research for my new super duty. I do not tow anything 99% of the time, and i have never owned a diesel truck. Would you recommend or persuade someone to get a diesel vs gas? would it make sense in my case, and does it require more maintenances for diesel with DEF?
I had a diesel, I don’t miss it one bit. This gasser has been great.
Kindly if you can share the link for the hood black piece with supply engraved on .
Lots of luck
Thank you.
Here you go! accessories.ford.com/products/super-duty-2023-lund-smoke-aeroskin-hood-protector
Thanks a bunch .
Nicve truck, can you show us the window sticker?
That screen is one of the main things that made me get rid of our platinum f150. It did the same thing you’re getting, holding down the power and fast forward will reset it sometimes I’d do it 2 times in a day. The last straw was when it somehow forgot I had a trailer attached after pulling away from a rest stop, and had a chair fall of from camper in front of us went to brake and swerve and where were my brakes? I had no trailer brakes.
Few weeks later it happened again pulling out of storage, had done the whole set up screen froze and no trailer brakes pulling up to a light 55mph. Reset the screen and it was fine. Traded it in following weekend. 😅
Definitely going back to the dealer for a look.
@@WanderingWeekends definitely keep an eye out.
There is no AI with the parking brake; whenever you use the zoom for the trailer view, the truck knows at that point you're trying to hitch up and applies the parking brake. That's nice, but ideally the parking brake would apply every time you drop into park regardless of hooking up or not. You're stopping, in park, truck can't/shouldn't move anyway, just apply the brake automatically. My ram works that way though it can be turned off I don't see why somebody wouldn't want it to auto apply. I've used handbrakes and parking brakes every time I park (like we're supposed to) for like 30 years now so having it automatically set instead is just one less thing to think about.
Thanks for the video. I’m glad you went over the things normal people want to see, and since you bought the truck it’s a real world review. I’m looking at a similar truck just missing the power on board and pro trailer assist. I was going to ask what you paid, thanks for going over that. I’m hoping they go under msrp a tad, but we will see. I have the weather tech mats in my current truck and after a few years they start getting out of shape, I think this time I’m going to try the ford rubber mats. Nice truck, good luck on the computer issues. That’s one thing that scares me as well, I’ll be coming from an 08 f150 with no fancy tech…major upgrade for me.
Good looking truck. I've got a 2019 F250 with the 6.2 gas. It does really well towing our camper but I've considered an upgrade. The 7.3 is high on my list when the time comes. I could see a lot of the features of this truck being game changers over my current.
The 6.2 was an absolute turd
@@englishenator
I am happy with my f350 6.2 gas. But I also only heavy tow 13000 lbs 20 miles round trip. Where the long distance towing is only 5000 lbs.
My guess is you did not get the 4.30 rear. I think that made a big difference on my truck. The 4.30 seems to add enough torque.
Mine sync screen dod the same thing. It will slowly get worse. They will be putting a new APIM in it. If they can get ahold of one that is.
You’ve earned the views and subscribers with all of your good videos. Many of them have helped me. Thanks.
I will admit I like to see in your videos, ‘What would Cory actually spend his own money on?’ rather than sponsored or gifted items, but I also recognize that’s just part of having a RUclips channel.
Ps… making me want a new truck.
Very fair point. I do like to point out a few things about the gifts.
1. Sometimes when folks use their own money they feel the need to defend the product OR have unrealistic expectations from the product. Having nothing invested I feel like I can give a bit better perspective.
2. I've done a few vids blasting gifts I have received... haha.
3. Many of the videos I do with the freebies are simply to introduce you guys to a new, quality product. Everyone's tastes and preferences are different. I don't want to limit the channel to only things I find useful. If its good quality at a fair price I am happy to introduce it.
All of this said I completely understand your point. Its a fine line to walk. In the end the viewers trust is ALWAYS #1.
Yeah I can appreciate that. Just because I don’t want a given product, doesn’t mean you wouldn’t.
Keep doing what you’re doing.
Does it still skip gears when starting out? Ive been told they changed that
They changed it! Thankfully
So yours doesn’t skip gears?
Hope that fits in the garage. I can’t spend that much on a vehicle and leave it outside
Nice truck, I just got the Lariat 350. The ride is great, which is way better than I anticipated. It actually rides better than my parents’ GMC AT4 1500. I’ve got the 3:73 rear end and average around 16 hwy in ECO mode. I haven’t had the issue with the screen. I’m assuming though it’s much like the new tech in LCD / LED tv’s where it does a pixel reset to prevent images from burning into the screen.
Have you done a towing video with this truck? How much would you feel comfortable towing with this truck?
I’ve spoken about its towing performance but nothing super in depth. It’s a great tow vehicle for my needs. I feel like anything up to 12-13k wouldn’t be a problem at all and a comfortable tow. I’d definitely go 3:73 rear again.
Great video, I have a 2022 f-150 and has the same problem with my screen since I picked it up, screen rebooting pretty much every time I start it ,as well as the radio keeps turning itself off. Just got my regular service today and mentioned it again so they’ve done a bunch of updates to the modules I guess. They said if this doesn’t work the next step would be to replace the needed module.
I thinking of getting rid of the DEF / DPF / and going with the 7.3 have you anything go wrong with the 7.3 thank you Vince
Not even a hiccup from the last one. Nearly 40k miles.
Good to know that it didn't leave you on the road side. Did you have any problems with the last truck I have a 21 7.3 love it so far. The tech is awesome on these new trucks but worries me. Great video.
Looks good! Never seen the hood bug deflector decal. Where did you get that?
accessories.ford.com/products/super-duty-2023-lund-smoke-aeroskin-hood-protector
I’ve got a 2017 ram diesel with 3.73 rear gears and i really like it
By any chance were you @ the KOA in St Augustine this weekend? There was a rig across from us there that looked similar to yours.
No, we were in the mountains
@WanderingWeekends Hey Corey, do you have an update for your Sync system situation? I have a 2020 Godzilla and ever since the last Sync update have had the same issues.
I do wish that my 2022 F250 XLT had electric seat controls. Driver seat has limited electric control. Passenger seat is all manual.
It's a option on xlt
I'm just ordering my 2024 F350. Still on the fence about the 6.7 or the 7.3. And since I'm going with the Tremor I'm locked into the 3.55 gears for the 6.7 or the 4.30 gears for the 7.3. I have to decide soon. What did you not like about your 6.7 vs your 7.3?
Great question. I was tired of worrying about “limp mode”, failing EPA required parts, the drama over diesel prices, waiting on diesel pumps to become available. DEF, insane repair bills, and knowing I paid $10k extra for something I did not need.
@@WanderingWeekends I appreciate the response. I have the same concerns but don't know anyone with a 7.3 to compare to. Thank you for this video and your opinion on the two
What tech package did you get to have the digital dash and larger screen?
Now I've got to go see if the zone lighting is on my XLT. LOL
I just ordered a 24 f250 lariat for right around 76000 not sure of the delivery date yet
Hey bro nice truck. That 7.3 is ok if ya like stoping at gas stations all the time. Me I'm a diesel guy. I like the power and the mileage that a diesel provides. There's nothing like stepping on the gas pedal and hearing that big diesel goin to work when ya got a heavy load behind ya.
I think the maintenance on the diesel with all that emissions stuff would ture me towards. If you talk to one of your friends real nice when that thing goes into limp mode they will come with there gas motor and tow you to ford I hope you don't have an engine problem it's sad to walk in and see the cab and frontend off the truck so they can get to the motor
I will take the gas engine over diesel to stay away from diesel maintenance, DEF, and going 5 mph because a sensor went bad.
I'll stick with just having diesel in my tractor 🚜
If you have a Furrion camera on your rv are you having trouble with it working properly on your 23 model Ford?
I'm not currently running a backup camera
Love this video! I'm currently shopping for this exact truck so this was super helpful! I've been trying to compare/contrast the 7.3 Godzilla vs the Powerstroke Diesel and I think for me personally I'm leaning the Godzilla but I was curious more of why you went to the diesel and back to gas again? Thanks again!
Where did your purchase that bug deflector?

What bug guard is that one you ordered?

Hey great vid, I’m looking at going from a 2017 F150 eco boost (keeping my Grand Design tho) now I am retired I want to move up to a 2024 F250. Was really looking at the diesel but now that I’ve seen your vid I’m looking more at going to the 7.3 …. -- I also use the PoPride Hitch and can say I love it, thanks for the vids and Happy Camping.
Thanks for the info. I have a 2022 RAM 3500 6.7 diesel. I an also thinking of going to a gas engine. I've been having trouble with the radio also. Keeps losing presets and other weird stuff. Dealer says it's a known issue, and RAM is working on it.
I was tempted to buy the 7.3 godzila but I've always ran diesels I bought a F350 4wd crew cab with lariat ultimate sport with FX4 same color
The oil burners are definitely stout.
Hey Cory, where did you get the bug shield. Love to get one for my 2022 F-350 SD
Ford site under accessories!
Is it the taped on or bolt on version?
I also have 2019 6.7 F350 Lariet. I hate the adaptive steering. Always fighting me to turn back to neutral. Or just driving around making turns in the city after a long day at work. I ordered a 2024 xlt and I pray the steering is easier or I won't take it. I'll go with Chev. their 2024 3500 has such easy steering. I was shocked.
Hey buddy love the videos. I have a 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 Duramax and considering ordering a f350. Can u send me ur build sheet. Thanks
Yessir! Getting mine next week and wanted to be sure the one I got had push button start. Love that feature!
New truck prices are insane... if your using it for a daily driver, the mpg just seems insane horrible. very nice truck though. My 6.7 I drive daily can get 17-18 in town, then 23-24 on the interstate unloaded. but the prices on all of them are just ridiculous, I believe FORD is intentionally marking this stuff up to subsidize their electric. I don't think the chip shortage is as legit as they claim.
Bidenomics and Kamalanomics
@@bobbybarnes1652 why is every trumpsucker so ignorant on economics
I have a Ford f 250 2023 7.3 gas , I can’t find no we’re in the truck that it says Godzilla?..
What was the link for the rear seat cover?
Here we go! amzn.to/47qgWGG
what brand of ball and hitch do you use?
I'm still a Weigh Safe guy until I find something better
Cool truck. I have a '21 Ram. Considered Ford F250 but couldn't get it with Limited Slip differential. That's a deal breaker for me.
Ford needs to see what world class digital instrumentation looks like and see what Porsche has done on their vehicles!!! The digital speedo and tach look like a joke done by high school students!
The Godzilla trucks are awesome period ❤
What's the payload capacity of this truck? It's the most important number to me when it comes to towing.
3300+
Wondering...did you order it or found it on a dealership?
Dealer. Dealers are well stocked around here.
Well, not much to chose from here north central Florida and going to big cities (Orlando, Jacksonville, etc) has proven extra/over charges. I'm in no rush...I got my 6.2L 2019 XLT Premium package w/FX4 May 2019 and did not really paid attention to the window sticker...
A few months ago, was reading it and found out it had the 10kGVRW upgrade, 4.30 axles which make this a 15K max towing capacity truck. I was under wrong impression it had the 3.73 axles. So is like getting an upgraded truck without $ out of pocket! It only has 30k driven miles and looks like new, even though sleep exposed to the sun.
Could you please share a link or information on where you got the hood protector? Thanks!
I had the same issue with my 2019 f-150 where I had to reset it constantly, not as much as yours but at least every couple of weeks, I honestly think is a software issue on Ford's ew trucks/vehicles, I no longer own the Ford and don't have those issues on my current vehicle (Honda). Hopefully they can get yours resolved and you get to enjoy your new truck.
Were you able to get adaptive cruise with the xlt package?
I’m not sure if it’s is available on XLT. This truck doesn’t have it.
Nice. Good luck. And yes I am a Ford guy.
So when you get in the truck does the menu on the speedo screen come up every time? Also have you had issues with the collision assist come on when pulling in a parking spot or very slow crawling traffic? It will apply the break out of the blue.. I have a few other issues with my King Ranch.
Yes, the menu pops up every time. I have not had issues with the collision assist.
You have a link for that black hood protector film???
accessories.ford.com/products/super-duty-2023-lund-smoke-aeroskin-hood-protector
@@WanderingWeekends Wasnt sure if it was that one or not. I just picked up my 23 Lariat 6.7 yesterday. I dont have the sports appearance package, so not sure how its gonna look with the chrome grille. I have silver too so this helped give me a good idea on what itll look like.
Thanks.
Payload and tow capacity? I am going gas for sure but don't know if I want to go F250 or F350 I am looking for closer to 4K lbs payload than 3K.
I have a 23 F350 with the godzilla and 3.73 rear end, and I too get 14.5 average in mixed driving.
Honestly not bad.
My 2004 Lexus GX470 gets around 14 consistently around town and low 20’s highway. It has 4.7 with a fraction of the power and full time AWD.
Pretty wild considering how close their fuel economy is.
Me also. Love the 7.3. Drove a 7.3 PS for 26 years
My F350 Lariat 2023 doesn’t have the screen issues
What would be your opinion on a F350 7.3 dually? To tow our 5th wheel
FX4 is a deal breaker in Nevada. Not just skid plates, but a locker in the rear end.
Wow, nice truck. I wish they'd put some of that fancy stuff in the Chevy Express vans. I guess they assume it's going to be a work vehicle and workers don't need luxuries 🙄
Love the van as our TV, but it would be nice to have some fancier amenities.
Did they figure out what was the issue
I absolutely love my 2020 F250 XLT but that tech you have with this new one makes me jealous. Where did you get the back seat cover for the pets? Looking for something similar.
Good looking truck, did you order it or buy it off the lot.
Off the lot. Found it online, confirmed availability, test drove and bought it all within 3 hours. Haha.
What dealer did you buy from?
Loganville Ford in Loganville GA
