Congratulations!!
2023 MY Super Duty Order/Schedule/Build dates from Ford...
- OP 🔹 Floral_Industries
- Start date
They are.... I double checked. The tail lights have incandescent bulbs but everything else appears to be LED.
Took the boat out today. Damn does this truck tow nice. Big, big improvement over my 6.0 Chevy 2500. Couldn't even feel the boat back there. With all the different camera angles getting the trailer lined up perfectly was a breeze. Almost 300 miles so far...
So now that I'm getting more used to the truck I am finding a few minor things that irritate me a little. Every time I shut the truck off and restart it I have to shuffle through the menu screen to put it back where I had it. That's a pain. The truck also really likes android auto! My music starts playing as soon as my phone is connected. Even if I was listening to the radio or XM. The truck won't play the station or setting it was on before I shut it down. That's another pain. Maybe I need to play around with the menu's and features and figure it out. It's not the most user friendly system I've dealt with but it does have a lot of nice features.

- 2023 HO Lariat Ultimate Tremor Azure Gray w winch 2k power. Baja interior. No BAP/SAP.
At least it’s all software so it could be updated/improved if Ford catch on.
I'm hoping it's user error but if it isn't Ford should fix it.
Go to android auto settings and turn off auto start music
I'll see if I can figure that out.
I believe it's on your phone
Just saw update that mine is built and waiting shipping. I know that could be a bit but it's progress!

Thanks I found it on my phone and auto play was selected. That should do the trick.
I just got my built notification today too. Mine says convoy, so hopefully a little quicker than rail.
Mine convoy as well. Maybe Kentucky to Arkansas will be somewhat better than many people have to deal with. Who knows. Could be months. Good luck!
Mine is coming to IL. About 4.5 hours from the plant, so I'm hopeful. Good luck to you as well.
I know that mine rolled out the back of KTP last Monday morning and was at my dealer by noon on Thursday. And that's from Louisville to Cincinnati. So I think they're getting them sent out quick...as long as it's convoy.
I am looking at swapping out tires this week. Does anyone know if the 285/75R18's will fit on the non-tremor Lariat? There is plenty of room in the rear, it's the front I'm slightly worried about and I do not want to do a leveling kit. Are the Wrangler Duratracs good tires or is there something else that's better for the snow I should be looking at. My rims are 8"...
My reply is for the quality of the Good Year Duratracs: I live in Northern NY and deal with deep snow, ice and highway slush and have found the duratracs to be great winter tires, although I do drop to 60psi for the winter. Actually I was surprised how well they handled and I ran snow tires on my F150 for years and do not see the need for them now. But for what makes them great winter tires I believe detracts from their longevity. I tow a 7,000lb camper 45 trips a year, in the rough mountains on limited access highways in addition to the pavement and at the most I will get is 28-32k per set. Admittedly I do not run my tires to the lowest legal tread depth, but I do run them till I get uncomfortable. Hope that helps!
The old 3PMS Duratrac's did quite well in the winter, haven’t read a lot of positive things for winter traction with the new version without the 3PMS rating. My 3PMS 285-75R18 are near the end of their life and was unable to source the 3PMS tires in 285-75R18 so will be going with the Mickey Thompson’s (not available in the 285-75R18). Falken AT3W is available in the 285 with good reviews if looking for something better in winter weather.
With stock rims I think you would be able to clear the 285 without a level but can’t say for certain there.
Just got an email for my Platinum. Dealers are being told to remove multi contour seats for 300 bucks. This goes for KR and Platinum 23s. I’m not accepting a 100k truck without them. But this also might mean I won’t ever get one….
I just got the same email from Granger. I ain't removing them either.
