Thumbs up 2023 Lariat Ultimate Update

Got this bad boy on May 31, 2023 and as of today have logged 18,500 miles. Mpg is awesome, only one gremlin navigation screen locked up and missed an exit. I believe the OTA update fixed it this has not happened in over 6 months.

My point is most people come to the Ford truck forum because they have an issue or a problem., then post the issue. That’s what people read and see and think that the 2023-24 are riddle with problems. They are not, these SD are good solid trucks and I love mine.

I took this picture this morning. Pics do not do it Justice, though.

Please don't post on here unless you're going to be negative, complain, ask "why" someone wants to do something to their own truck, or criticize the UAW.

I have 7 now(23+), I wouldn't agree with you 100%.


At the end of the day, I'm a Ford guy.

Great looking truck! I almost went with Azure.

Have been enjoying my 23 as well with no major gripes.

What a refreshing thread and a lovely truck. I'm loving my '24 so far. 4500 miles on it in 2 months.

I’d like to piggyback off the positivity here. Took delivery May 23, 2023 and logged 15k so far. Zero issues at all. This is my daily as well as a work truck, plow truck and weekend family hauler. Looking forward to many, many more miles with her.

I love my 2024. Not one issue yet. I took it to the dealer for a clunk...the dealer sent me a video of my 5th wheel adapter in the bed making the clunk! Doh!

I daily drive my F450 and the only thing I wish is that Ford carried the Azure color into the 2024 year because that is the color I wanted!

You forgot to mention why diesel is better than gas. Or vice versa.

Only 640 miles on my 24 since I got it 12/28/23 (merry Christmas to me).

I do like driving it much more than my 2020, more comfortable and feels more planted.

only thing I wish was I could’ve gotten the color I wanted. I don’t mind black, and the antimatter blue almost looks black at times so it’s not that big a deal, really.
