Yeah I’m sure they will be that much more. Not worth it for me. How did you find the exact build day for your truck? Mine was built in July too, at Flint. 

 

Have to find the build codes, which a dealer can do.  3400 and 3800 is what you are looking more.  Somewhat mispoke,  my 3400 was 11JULY, which says thats the day it was loaded into the PC and works its way down the line.  My 3800 code is when the vehicle is done was like 16JULY.  at least what the dealer can give you, you wont get a date time group by hour or day when it was actually completed.  Combined with the fact the codes could be a day or so behind.  You are looking at really a week span of when it could have been built.

usually they jump about 1k-2k a year.  The issue is for 24 is they will have the 1-2k increase and then the onstar will be added into the base price for 24 from what I read.  So same truck before options will be at least 4-5k more from 23 to 24

I’m curious, there’s a lot of activity on the “sister” ford truck enthusiast site about the 2023 super duty. Lots of threads and very active. 
 

This place seems like a ghost town in comparison. What gives? Is there not that much of a following for GM HD trucks?

Funny, when I look at 'Ford-truck.com', it seems most of the forum posts are from owners having problems.

Yeah it’s true. I look at both and a couple others and it this one is the slowest by far. Wish it was busier as I have a GM and no longer a ford or Toyota truck.

How is that any different from the 2020+ HD forum here? There’s even an entire subforum here to discussing troubleshooting issues. I count at least 6 threads on the first page of the 2017+ super duty subforum about discussing new super duty orders there, yet only one here for the new Silverado/sierra.

Just one man's opinion... 

There has always been Chevy guys and Ford guys. Just read the way the posts are written over there, they're a little different than here. Don't know why. Just a different crowd.

 

Can't convince me otherwise.

I don’t think anyone is arguing to the contrary. The original point was more forum activity vs. less forum activity; why the discrepancy in participation.

Here you go..

I could be wrong though.

Yes this.  And true, this is a very slow forum

Unfortunately this website is not secure at all and I keep getting a google scam pop up and this is the only website I’ve ever gotten it and it keeps happening. That needs to be fixed. I may not visit here anymore.

Maybe it’s that Ford is the most popular. Has a proven diesel. Has more driving aids for heavy duty pulling. More choices in the engine department. Has a real high performance off roader like the raptor. You can get 400 HP in a mid size SUV. Has the cheapest 4 door small pickup. And then there’s the bronco. For the electric fans, lightning and mustang. Chevys are trailing right now in every category. The Camaro is dated. Mid engine corvette, no thanks. I think I covered most of it. If you’re talking about the forum itself, I have no problems with it.

I use a desktop PC with an ad blocker and have never had a problem other than slow some times.

    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page 
    • Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.       
    • We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper. 
    • Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money". 
    • I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
