Test-drive the new Ford F-150 at D’Orazio Ford in Wilmington, IL
At D’Orazio Ford in Wilmington, IL, we know there’s no question about the legendary toughness of the Ford Super Duty. These workhorses have earned their reputation for delivering power, capability, and value.
But when it comes to choosing between the 2023 and the all-new 2024 models, you might be wondering which one reigns supreme. Well, fret no more! We’re here to break down the key differences and upgrades to help you decide which Super Duty is the perfect match for you.
Exterior: A Sharper Look for 2024
While both the 2023 and 2024 Super Duty models boast a bold and imposing presence, the 2024 gets a slight edge in the looks department. It retains the variety of seven grille designs depending on trim level, but the signature C-shaped lighting elements have been subtly redesigned for a more modern and aggressive feel. They can still be optioned with LED headlights for maximum nighttime visibility.
One key difference you’ll notice on the 2024 is a new hood design that features more prominent creases and sculpting. This adds some muscular definition to the front end and complements the revised front bumper.
While the 2023 offered long side vents for improved aerodynamics, the 2024 takes a slightly different approach with redesigned vents that offer a more integrated look. Both model years offer a variety of appearance packages to customize your truck with different wheel styles, trim accents, and paint options.
Tech Showdown: Staying Ahead of the Curve
Both the 2023 and 2024 Super Duty are packed with technology that enhances comfort, convenience, and most importantly, capability. The 2023 model year introduced the Super Duty as the first pickup in the US with embedded 5G.
This translates to blazing-fast Wi-Fi for on-the-go connectivity, smoother map updates, and the innovative Trailer Navigation system that considers your trailer size and weight when recommending routes. The 2024 builds on this by incorporating even faster 5G connectivity for an even more seamless experience.
The popular Ford Powerup software updates that occur over-the-air while you drive continue to be a feature in the 2024, ensuring your truck stays up-to-date with the latest performance and technology enhancements. The beloved full-color head-up display remains a game-changer, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road while accessing vital information.
Safety First: Advanced Driver Assistance
When it comes to towing large loads, safety becomes paramount. Both the 2023 and 2024 Super Duty offer a suite of driver-assist technologies designed to give you complete confidence behind the wheel. These include the innovative Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch that helps you accurately estimate payload and balance your trailer weight.
The 360-degree Trailer Camera System provides a bird’s-eye view of your surroundings, while Pro Trailer Hitch Assist takes the guesswork out of hitching up your trailer. Trailer Navigation ensures you have a safe and efficient route planned, and the industry-first Tailgate Down Camera and Reverse Sensing System eliminates trailer blind spots when your tailgate is lowered.
The 2024 Super Duty takes safety a step further with the introduction of an available Blind Spot Assist System for your trailer. This system uses radar sensors to detect vehicles approaching from behind your trailer, providing an extra layer of security, especially when changing lanes. Additionally, the 2024 offers an upgraded automatic emergency braking system with pedestrian detection to help you avoid potential collisions.
Powerhouse Performance: The Heart of the Super Duty
If you need a truck that can handle the toughest jobs, then both the 2023 and 2024 Super Duty deliver. They boast the most towing capacity, the most payload capacity, the most torque, and the most horsepower in the heavy-duty pickup segment.
Both model years offer four engine options, giving you the choice that best suits your needs. The standard 6.8L V8 gas engine provides ample power for daily tasks, while the 7.3L V8 offers best-in-class horsepower for gas engines.
For those who require maximum towing and hauling muscle, the 6.7L Power Stroke diesel V8 is a proven workhorse. The top performer remains the high-output 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel with turbo, churning out best-in-class horsepower and torque for effortless hauling and towing.
Each chassis cab model in both the 2023 and 2024 features a power take off (PTO) connection, allowing you to run additional equipment essential for your work. However, the 2024 introduces the next generation of upfitter solutions with the Ford Pro™ Upfit Integration System.
This innovative system grants you access to your truck’s electrical system like never before. Imagine seamlessly integrating and controlling various upfit equipment directly from your in-cabin digital display.
The 2024 Super Duty with the Ford Pro Upfit Integration System empowers you to power tools, manage auxiliary lighting, and operate other work equipment directly from your truck, all while maintaining crucial safety interlocks for optimal control.
The Bottom Line: Choosing Your Super Duty
Ultimately, the decision between the 2023 and 2024 Super Duty comes down to your specific needs and preferences. Both trucks are exceptional heavy-duty machines, offering unparalleled capability and technology.
If you value the cutting-edge safety features like the Blind Spot Assist System for your trailer and the upgraded automatic emergency braking, then the 2024 Super Duty might be the perfect choice. For those seeking the latest in upfitter technology with the Ford Pro Upfit Integration System, the 2024 model year is a clear winner.
However, if you prioritize a fantastic selection of trims, best-in-class powertrains, and innovative technology like the embedded 5G and Trailer Navigation, the 2023 Super Duty remains a formidable option.
