After some effort to search for answers here and elsewhere I remain confused as to the availability of the 10R140 and 10R100.....which isn't helped by Ford's build and price tools which don't reference either tranny by it's model number but rather it's advertising name (Torqshift and Torqshift-G)
I am looking into purchasing another Super Duty for my fleet and it seems that tranny applications have changed in the past few years. In 2022 the 10R140 was used in all applications except an F250 with the 6.2 which still used the old 6R100 (6.2's in the F350 got the 10R140). In 2023 the 6.2 was dropped as the base engine and replaced with the 6.8 (baby zilla) which used the new 10R100 transmission - all 7.3's and 6.7's got the 10R140. Now it seems (2025?) that the 10R100's use has been expanded to the 7.3 except trucks equipped with 4.30 gears (all Tremors).
Is this correct? I'm considering another 7.3 truck but want to make sure it has the beefier 10R140. I don't want to debate the potential reliability of the 10R100, that's another subject, I'm just trying to get a handle on which trucks come with which transmissions and I'm not convinced (yet) that "Torqshift-G = 10R100".

Yes, Torqshift-G = 10R100
Look at the order guide axle page to give better details on which will have the Torqshift-G, but its mainly all 6.8L, and all F250 7.3L other than Tremor. All 6.7L get the Torqshift 10R140.
FFS Ford needs to stop being foolishly penny pinching on their trucks and just use one SD gas engine and one transmission for that gas engine already. I get that they are losing their shirt on the EV ventures but the continued price gouging on gas truck customers, who for the most part just want a properly made 7.3 mated to a properly made 10R140, needs to stop. GM has one gas engine and one transmission for the L8T. Ram has now just one gas engine and one (excellent) transmission for the 6.4. What does Ford do? First the 7.3 was a 2k option. Then in 23 you have to pay either a 8k premium or go up to XLT to get it. Now they downgrade the transmission on most of the 7.3s. Never mind all the problems we have seen with the 10 speeds and various issues on the 7.3 since 2020.
Make one gas combo and make it right, is that too much to ask?
Last this was discussed the conclusion was all gas F250 except Tremor now is equipped with 10R100. 7.3L in F350 and up is equipped with 10R140. All 6.8L are equipped with 10R100.
The G designation appears to just mean gasoline version now. It used to differentiate between the 6R100 and 6R140 but ive seen it used for both the 10R100 and 10r140 the last few years. There is a gasoline specific version of the 10R140. May break a few hearts from those thinking all 10R140s are the toughest diesel version.
Ford keeps de-contenting the SDs. Snuck the smaller front axle in on 2023+, took 6 months before anyone noticed on here. Now they snuck in the smaller 10 speed with the 7.3 non Tremor F-250s.

Not to mention quietly phasing in the dummy passenger side hubs hoping the buyers are too ignorant to even know what it is, or too lazy to walk around to the other side to check.
They are losing what, 35k a unit of Mach Es, but all their financial genius accounts are all too busy nickling and diming their brand loyal ICE truck buyers to make up the margins on top of yearly price increases that far outpace inflation. But hey, since their core high margin market now are office chair commando suburban buyers who can't be bothered to lower their own tailgate, who's to argue who's more right. LOL.
They put the 10R100 behind the 7.3 in the Tremor? Maybe they made it stronger than the 6.8 version. This seems like a cost cutting measure that actually costs them more money. The Tremor is designed for more harsh use then a regular Fx4 and the 7.3 puts out more torque than the 6.8.
Ford is getting eaten alive in warranty repairs. They should put the 10r140 is all superduty trucks with all engines. It seems like it would be cheaper than e gineering and testing a lighter trans. You put a heavier trans in all engines, it aught to cut down in warranty repairs for those that abuse their 6.2/6.8/7.3 trucks.

It sounds like 4.30 trucks still get the 10R140 so tremors do get it, for now, until they don't.
The supply chain involved in making, fitting, and writing the software for the 10R100 to fit 6.8 in 3.73 and 4.30, and 7.3 with 3.73, while fitting 10R140 to 7.3 only in 4.30 after years of using a gas for all versions of 7.3 (and 2020-2022 6.2 in F350s LOL) sounds like a pointless fire drill to cut small costs at expense of integration and functionality, not to mention downstream repair and parts availability complexity. I would rather they use the money to make sure a 7.3+10R140 is fully vetted, but that would be too antiquated of a business model I'm sure for the Ford of the EV age. Why use one boring motor+tranny combo when we can play lego with two motors and two transmissions, sheer brilliance!
