Definitely more flattering in a dark paint color and no front end chrome. The (presumably) higher end trim truck front ends look terrible, IMO. Maybe I’m the minority but I’d put the 17-19 front end way towards the bottom of a list of Super Duty fronts. 20-22 is the best they’ve had in a while
Well, they somehow managed to make an uglier truck than the 17-19's... I'll remain happy with my '20 for the foreseeable future. Features look cool but that front end..... wtf.
I'm not a fan of how hot any of the 10Rs run.
And isn't the service interval something like 150k miles? I want to say that's what my local dealer told me. Supposed to be a royal pain in the ass to do too.If you read the specs on the fluid, it's designed for the heat. It's minimum temp is pretty high.
Meh.
I am, however, intrigued by the "HO" powerstroke. Ill be interested to hear the numbers.

10-speed is certainly a love-hate for me.
To each their own. I bought a '19 specifically because I didn't care for the new '20 front end. I do agree however the '23 is not going in the right direction.Well, they somehow managed to make an uglier truck than the 17-19's... I'll remain happy with my '20 for the foreseeable future.

In which application?
All mine ran way cooler than the 6R80's in gas engines
My silverado with the 10 speed got to 175degrees towing 5k this past weekend. Usually at 155-167
Brothers 20 Raptor also is in the 170 range unloaded.
Yep. I'm right there with ya.It's love/hate for me too. Love it at anything 1/2 throttle and above or in sport mode (which with the RPM holding can become annoying in daily use regretfully), but other times it can make me cuss.
Mine got up to 217 the other day, but I was pulling a tad heavy…
And yes, that’s with air bags…
"I'm delighted when it uses fourth - Seems to require near perfect conditions"Yep. I'm right there with ya.
- I'm convinced it hates second gear.
- I'm delighted when it uses fourth - Seems to require near perfect conditions.
- Overall silky smooth on the way up otherwise.
- 1700rpm on the highway is generally nice until I have to beg the thing to drop out of 10th in order for it to move its ass.
- 4wd + Sport mode launch is kinda fun and has surprised a couple people hehe
Yikes, that's pretty warm for trans temp.
