Ordering a ‘23 Powerstroke

Ford uses a 12 pin connector for the trailer TPMS, aux camera, and backup assist. Anyone know if that plug is standard across. Ford, GM and Ram?

The factory air ride has Ram currently at the top of the list for my next truck in 3 years. It'll likely be a dually, so anything to smooth out the ride is a plus.

Unless the high output is going to deliver close to 1200 lb ft of torque as well as a significant bump in pony power I’m thinking there’s not going to be very many people willing to fork out extra for a water cooled turbo.

I agree with the not good news. Looking at retiring and thinking of getting my last truck. Haven't got to talk to my dealer yet, but hear there is very limited allocations for dealers.

I’m planning on ordering a ‘23 Super Duty as soon as the order banks open. I don’t need more power and I’ll probably only keep the truck for a year. How many of you are going to be willing to pay an extra $1500 (just a guess) for a high output Powerstroke? Is the larger turbo of the high output going to cost more at the pumps? I think justifying the Cummins high output is a little easier as it includes the Aisin transmission. The only way it makes sense for me with the Powerstroke is if I’m going to get my money back on the resale.

So are you going to order a XL or XLT this time? Options going to be limited for a while. Took the following off a Ford forum.

The Super Duty Order Bank for Job 1 orders will open 10/27/22 with production beginning in early February. The only Models that will be produced for Job 1 are XL, XLT, and Lariats. Note: XLTs with Tremor package will not be produced until Job 2. Lariats will only be available with limited options.

The Order Bank will accept and price Job 2 in late February. This will include all Models as it will expand out to include King Ranch, Platinum, Limited as well as full line of options for the XLT and Lariat. Production on Job 2 will start in April.

I understand what you’re saying and it makes no sense. The conversation has nothing to do with gassers and they can’t tear up a 14 bolt anyway.
Your reasoning just made no sense. Plan and simple , whether you point out that gassers had a lighter duty axle for years or not.
Fact remains there are AAM 11.8 and 12.0 axles already being produced. And given AaM used to be GM and now is GMs sole source supplier as of recent, what you said made even less sense.

:h

If you have 34 " tires and a 3:31 axle ratio, you need all the horsepower you can find.

Check your calendar. It’s 2022 not 2002….
