New Member swapping Gen 3 Raptor for Tremor

[joehamrva]

New member in VA. Love the Raptor it is a super cool truck but I drive a ton of miles (9k since Oct) so feels silly eating all that gas and running mileage up on the Raptor. Can bail on it now and recapture everything I paid including tax on it so seems prudent. Excited to get a Tremor as I think that will be perfect for me and what I "need" a truck for. Getting quotes from a few different places now on them and have an email out to Granger from the forums.

Make sure you note the people who have builds now showing up 4-5 months delayed. They should have been getting their trucks in a couple of weeks. Either Ford's tracker has gone haywire, or there is a major shortage of parts.

Ford has cut production on several vehicles due to no chips, that's also why the 2022 lost some of the ambient lighting and the temp on the knobs.

Essentially they didn't plan on the Maverick or the Tremor selling as well as they have. They've stopped taking orders on the Maverick till June and the mustang as well

I did exactly what you're planning! I sold my 2021 Gen 3 Raptor and got a 2022 Tremor all loaded up. It's 95% of the truck the Raptor is, rides just as nice. Love the towing and payload upgrade. Price difference for what I sold Raptor for ($91K) and the Tremor was $20k. Miss the looks of the Raptor and the exclusivity but the $20k in my pocket sure helps.

If you watch the forum much, I bet you will be parting with some of the pocketed cash before long.

I dumped a Raptor because of the towing I do. Went with a platinum F-150. Now looking at the new Tremors. They kinda remind me of the First Gen Raptor. I loved the look of that truck. With the rumored Raptor R and TRX Red Eye. I am surprised they are selling so many. Especially with up to $20K markups. My buddy’s neighbor just got a 2022 TRX fully loaded and paid $27K over sticker. Crazy times, you’re lucky to have enjoyed the Raptor and now a Tremor.

crazy for sure, I guess he didn't shop around....I almost bought a base TRX for $7500 msrp (chapman had them at that) around $65k but I can't stomach the single digit gas mileage averages that people report with them on premium gas.....had a raptor on order for MSRP but canceled because I save $20k going with tremor at 4%under invoice....had a 2019 raptor and it was great but looking forward to the tremor....regular gas, easier to park, a touch faster and can get it with cloth seats
