2023+ TREMOR SD thread
Who has gotten there P708 Tremor super duty yet? Mine was built about a week ago, and I saw one at a dealer yesterday. Really trying to find out what changes made for 2023 around towing improvements. I heard Ford made the new Tremor more stable at towing vs prior gen.

Did you have a F250 or F350, gas or Diesel? Were you towing bumper pull or 5th wheel? Sorry for so many questions trying to peg down the situation where people with tremors are having towing issues.

Mine was a 2020 with 6.7 F350
If I recall correctly, 250 and the 350 tremors have the same suspension in the rear as well as the front. Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong.
I hauled conventional and gooseneck, never a fifth wheel.
I've personal owned 17 super duties since 99. I thought it was a great truck but I get rid of trucks every year.

The 350 will be night and day if you're used to towing with a Raptor and think it does good towing....

Good to hear, I have owned 5 raptors and I still believe they are the best towing half tons on the market...the extra wide width, stiff frame, HD cooling, and axles. I have the new Airlift air bags for my 21 Raptor and its pretty decent towing our 33ft 8500lb travel trailer in 2022.

I've never driven a Raptor but this is exactly the opposite of what I've read and understood regarding towing with a Raptor, glad it's worked out for you though. I went from a 12 F150 5.0 to the truck in my sig, and pull a camper a bit longer than yours and a bit lighter and its a much better towing experience with my F250.

Not knocking 2023's or Tremors; I'm sure you'll be very happy with your truck.

Previously, the Tremors have lower tow ratings than the standard 250/350’s. Being that they somehow raised all the tow ratings for the 23’s without any actual changes, the Tremors most likely saw an increase in ratings too.

most of the 23 Tremor F350 HO diesels Im seeing are having 400-500lbs more payload then the 2022 model year.
