I've heard that they won't shift into OD untill they reach a certain temp. Never heard of a 2-3 delay though.

My 97 f150 wont shift into 3rd until 30mph when stone cold. Doesn't shift into overdrive until the transmission temp is up. I always thought it was normal. Am I wrong?

These vehicles have a "cold shift" mode in the computer.
