I am usually biased towards the dealers in the discussions as I am always dealing with customers during my day job.
However a brand new truck with under 3k miles needs to have a new engine not a reman installed in it.
Stuff happens and it would not bother me to drive a new truck that had new engine installed under warranty, but it better be new not remand with used pistons and crank that passed “ inspection”.

wow you have a total of 3 post and all 3 are in the same thread, none of which have any useful information. Only trying to sell a gm product! do you need a reference to a chevy forum? you seem like you would be more at home there.

It's an HO, chances of there are no rebuilds yet. There could be some minor differences in the block and heads between them to support the water cooling and higher turbo output.
OTOH, if it does use the same block and heads, then retrofits are just around the corner.
Since the engine went grindy kapluey, I hope they would also replace the turbo since it could have metal in it too.

I wouldn’t necessarily steer away from a brand if a previous truck was lemon lawed. I went thru a buy back on my 2017 F150 and am convinced the truck wasn’t repaired properly due to negligence on the local dealers part.
No way in hell would I accept a rebuilt engine. The case would be turned over to an attorney and fast. If Ford can build a new truck with the same engine Ford can give the op a new motor.
You don’t **** on a buyer who just spent $80 large, or more. That is not how you take care of customers

The motors are produced en masse in Mexico. It literally just takes allocating 1 engine from Mexico to the plant and it getting delivered to the servicing dealer. Ford can track that however they want internally but it SHOULD be that simple. Farley is running the ship so I garauntee it isnt that simple.

From the information I have of the 2023 6.7L, both standard and HO actually dont share the same pistons as 2020-2022. Most likely the OP will get a remanufactured block, crank, and cam from a 2020-2022 and the dealer will install the 2023 pistons. Over my years repairing Fords ive never been able to get a brand new engine unless it was the first year of a clean sheet design. Once there are cores to remanufacture Ford wont designate a new engine to a warranty repair.

Dude............that........sucks......
Im sorry.
NO WAY would I want them to start the BS process of swapping motors, new OR reman.
I'd demand a rental of exact same capability, sue, and wait on the 24.
No one understands anything but force anymore. A lawsuit filed early, and that names everyone, gets attention. No sense in getting mad and yelling at anyone when you can be the plaintiff.

that account is very active today posting fluff posts congratulating new forums users and asking people to take issues offline via PM. In other words they are doing as much as we can possibly expect them to do.

It would be great to hear from Ford that they are going to put me in the 24 I ordered for the same price I paid for the 23 and cover my rental until the new one gets here. It sucks that I just sold my 2015 F350 two weeks ago. That was a great truck.
