New Ford Duallys are 6+ months out?

[fordguy]

I agree but they are rated for double what a ZF6 is.

Im talking aboutba 7.3 gasser, not a new diesel. I dont see a zf6 living long behind a new diesel either. Nv4500 might ?

i tore up more than a few nv4500s at 400 rwhp. i finally went 5600, tough but shifted like shit.

Interesting because Ive read many times 4500 can be built stronger

 

[gunracer1]

if you throw out the factory input and mainshaft, and get a good set of syncros.

My bad.
I don't give the 7.3 too much thought because if I was going so far as manual swapping it I wouldn't keep any emissions on it either...

I dont hate on the powerstroke because of emissions, but because v8 diesel.

and emissions tampering is a no no for many guys, so manual swap does not equal emissions delete

Hope yall have received the F-shitboxes

Zf6 is far stronger than an nv4500

I don't know if any pickup manual trans would actually hold up to the capability of the newer diesel trucks. I'm also not sure what the point would be with how good the newer autos are.

for just a driver, sure. But sometimes its nice to have a truck not think for you. I know you can lock out gears and manual shift blah blah blah. But a shifter on the floor is better than a couple buttons. And you cant convince me otherwise

Cool starry bra

Guy at a meeting yesterday pulls up in a new tundra, ttv6 Last time I saw him he had a fairly new F250 platinum, ask him how it was treating him? said it ain’t a Ford. But the Ford dealer wanted to tack on $8000 market adjustment and he was going to have to wait eight months, gave the dealer a quiet FU.

Engineerd at work traded in his "pos lemon" ecodiesel ram(I don't remember what problems he had with it), for a "pos lemon" diesel half ton chev, and after the engine and trans were replaced in that, he traded it in on a new top of the line tundra.

Guess what? He hates that "pos lemon" too. Lol I guess Toyota is completely blowing him off and ignoring him. And he texts me shots of the tabs and recalls it's in for. Lol

That’s a pretty big change. I’ve spent several thousand miles in a 23 Tundra, and have been fairly unimpressed.

Wait until the plastic trim along the front seat cracks. Apparently, Toyota won’t replace it under warranty anymore.

He didn’t seem impressed either, recently got back from Africa hunting water buffalo, probably traded the 250 in cause the battery went dead while he was away. Lost all the settings and about seven warning lights were on

Friend in fl has a 2020 Silverado 4cyl 4dr always nit picking this sound or that sound, but he’s really stabby with the throttle all the way to the speed limit.

7k miles in on my '23 sd gasser, i still love it.

Not gonna lie.

Hate the headlights and the new dash.

But would also likely happily replace the current Tremor with that one.

Niceass truck, wish they didn't copy GM on the built-in tupperware steps but minor details.

Nothing minor about those steps. Them fuckers are huge

The steps are one of the few good things on the truck. I use mine daily. I slipped a couple weeks ago and about knocked the breath out of myself. Belly hit the bed rail.

 

[Pocahontas]

Side step, front end and massive touch screen all negatives in my opinion.

 

[Southernfriedcj8]

I wouldn't be mad at a single cab version of this with a 7.3. Pickup beds and dually fenders are overrated.

Those are some sweet wheels.

Too bad CK doesn't have those. He got stuck with the ugliest wheels in the history of mankind.

 

[Clemson13]

i love the truck ...minus the new headlights & side steps. Why follow GM and the abortion of a design they have been fucking in a blender.

 

[Ebs]

I put one of these on my work truck and it works great, tucks up under the rear corner and drops to about shin height. Doesn't look like Pontiac Aztek revival.

Hate the bed/bumper steps all you want, they are handy as shit.
