Have enjoyed your builds. Please do a thorough Youtube walkaround like on the last truck!

As mentioned above, ordering for the 2022 model year has ended. Ford has not yet released the 2023 Super Duties with their refresh publicly. One of the SD Facebook groups has a thread where October 17th seems to be the consensus for 2023 order banks to open. I just went and saw my 2022 ordered...

Where do you frequent? I am in the Milwaukee area but love heading west and driving through all the smaller communities. It really is a great state. I'm more excited for my truck - just got the "built" notification on friday. Now to make room for it... Nice. I am in a '20 F-250 6.7l rental...

Glad to hear you are still liking the switch. I have a truck on order (supposed to be build this week) and I'm excited for it. What kind of MPG are you seeing regularly? Cheers from your neighbor to the north (WI)

The above are some good points. What else will you be doing with the truck - any towing over 10k lbs? How regularly? What all do you plan on loading into the truck when traveling? Any plans for a pop-up or truck camper in the future? For my use case (rarely towing, payload important, possibly...

I had one on a 2020 Super Duty. Loved the functionality for the cost, but agree that they are far from dust-proof. My front panel would come unsnapped at highway speeds on occasion. It would then slap against the back window which was really irritating. Ended up running some foam round stock...

I may be wrong, but since you ordered a 3500 CC, I believe the front suspension is the same as a standard 3500 truck. This means that any kit from Carli or another manufacturer will work for the front. I like the Carli products. Thuren Fabrication is another reputable shop to call...

GLWS. Enjoyed watching your videos about the build. Such a cool truck. Hopefully you'll document your next project as well!

Thank you. All fair points.

Peter, can you elaborate on this? I have always thought of these two options as decent ones from the factory, but if I recall from one of your videos, you had some more thoughts. Is it not worth having it from the factory for supporting powered accessories like lights, winch, compressors?

Thanks, @mk216v for such a well-documented thread so far. I am very close to my next F-350 order and this thread is helping me think through it! Appreciate all of your knowledge - I am also guilty of analysis paralysis. Every. Damn. Time. Looking forward to the progression!

Do you have any renderings of this setup? This is the same situation I'm grappling with - I want the 8' bed's capacity but the shorter wheelbase cant be beat!

Great-looking, well-executed build. Who built the flatbed? It is very similar to something I have in mind for a project. GLWS

I have always enjoyed your builds and it looks like this one won't be any different! I am in a Cummins rental truck right now. I become more impressed with the motor daily. We will see how the 2023 Ford trucks look, but I have some deciding to do...

What is your actual fuel mileage with the 8.1? While I'd like a diesel, the market is nuts. Wonder how the 8.1 does real-world driving?

Nope, that is exactly what I was hoping for! these are the two which have my attention (won't be in the market for at least a year). The OE looks awesome and the reviews from people currently using them seem great. I haven't seen one in person, but I want to better understand the significant...

I think the 8' bed is the better route for your use, for sure. I just meant that you'll be truck buddies with him :LOL:

Not sure where you are located but check these guys out: https://www.pitts4x4co.com/ He does 4x4 recovery training AND he has a 7.3l F-250 Tremor.

I have loved following along so far. I enjoyed the article on flatbed options - good read. Looking forward to seeing the bumper/tire carrier setup. When you say you went with the Pintop Carli system, I assume you mean you got the King shock package? Did you consider any other pop-up brand...

I have been trying to find a clean ECLB GMT800 for months... it's impossible. Such awesome trucks.
