Which Tremor is the best?

I also have the tail lights with onboard scales, but the scales don’t work. So its really a negative because they aren’t compatible with after market lights etc.

Why do they not work?
 
I have a 23' 402A, I do have a few chip shortage items like heated steering wheel, high mount rear camera (in brakelight), blue cruise (but didn't want anyway). Other than that it has every option including the 2kW inverter. Currently sitting at 90k miles and love every bit of it, I drive a lot of highway and just put new tires on and upped the size to 295/70R18's ( I believe this should have been stock tire size).
 
i have everything but the heated steering wheel on mine. ticked me off that's where they decided to save chips. luckily i live in Texas so don't need it a ton but man its nice even in the 30's and 40's.
Was the heated wheel listed as a factory delete on your window sticker? If so, I think I read somewhere the dealer will install it for you. Again, I think I saw/ read that somewhere. Can’t hurt to go ask. 🤷‍♂️😉
 
The Adaptive Headlights with the Glare-free feature activated. That was the pinnacle of Tremordom.

My '22 is missing the sunroof, super dooper Bose system, and work desk. I'm sorry I didn't get the work desk. Rarely miss the other features. Pro Power will run an electric kettle for coffee and charge power tools.

The second time the Torsen diff broke, I started to think about replacing my Tremor. Not being able to get adaptive headlights stopped me from that silly notion. Thankfully the newest front diff hasn't broken.

22 with 402, missing sunroof (did Not want a sunroof), work surface, and had auto stop start deleted -$50. Has everything else including the heated steering wheel. 71k sticker, Whoof!

Bought used for 20k off with 4k miles off and have almost 9k miles now. Wifeys main transport but LOVE the truck. Aside from the screen freezing and having some 360 camera issues it’s pretty dang good. Bout to do an oil change with stock motor craft.

Added tonneau cover, all weather mats, and rear fender liners. Looking for mud flaps next

That only applies to Canadian trucks. The heated steering wheel was the only thing missing on my 23 (aside for the lighted cup holders and temp dials that no 23s got) but all can be added back yourself, which I did. I didn’t have to add back the bed cam as mine came with it, but I would have.

Still can’t figure out why Ford gave the new Tremors the XLT lights instead of the Lariat lights, considering Tremors cost more than a Lariat.
 
2023 402a.

I am 100% biased though and will probably regret it when I have to replace one of my headlights.

Supplier shortages with both the lights (main issue) and the grille changes. Surprised it hasn’t been added back yet but considering they have also decided to make an STX a Lobo I worry it’ll never come
 
My 23 402 is missing the heated steering wheel. Didn't think I'd miss it when I purchased it in July when temps were in the 90's. But come winter time, yeah, I miss it. But hey, I got a $50 credit. Woo-Hoo.
On the brighter side, it's also missing the auto start /stop.

Bose system in a TREMOR?
NOPE.🤣
I’m not sure but I don’t think Ford has ever used Bose in any of their vehicles.

If possible, get a Ford backed ESP that covers everything and include the optional lighting coverage.

Just got mine. I wish I had looked into it sooner so I could have got the 175k mile coverage.

I did the lighting addons as well. Doors, cup holder, cubby and glove box. I haven’t checked my wiring harness for the bed cam. And I am searching for the digital temp dials. I would assume the bed cam and the digital temp would need some programming to work?????

We like our space white 2025 402a. We love heated steering wheels up here in the winter.
At first, I was concerned about the rake and considered a leveling kit or Bilstein shocks to raise the front end. But as soon as one leads up the back or hooks up a trailer, the rake is gone. I installed Timbrens to limit the sag.
One question I have is which winch would work well. The Warn that fits with the modular bumper is hard to get. What else fits? And are the overhead buttons prepared? Any good videos on the install?
 
So I have a 2022 loaded and I love that truck very much. I recently got a 2025 with the V8 and this thing is loaded sunroof, full stereo system ,V8 , 402 a package bumpers tailgate all that fun stuff but I’m having a hard time between the two I find myself driving my 22 more than my 25.
I work for a mining company, and fly drones for a living, my truck and I go into all type mining operations from rock Quarry‘s with super steep trails and roads to all the way out in the Sand dunes and my 22 goes through all-terrain like no one‘s business. Those turbos do their job. I honestly feel that the 3.5 does way better in this environment. The V8 is fun cause you hear the growl. It does have great power but not like the 3.5. In my opinion.
They did take a lot of nice stuff away from the truck interior I don’t feel it’s near as nice,
I’ve got 135,000 on one and 10,000 on the other One thing that does get me annoyed with the 25 is that it has brake checked me three times when I was doing over 75. So now I find myself turning off the assisted driving when I ended up purchasing a blue Cruz package.
Yes, the new one smells nice and brand new inside.
but I choose the 22 with the 3.5 .
Another win for the 3.5L!!! Love the real world comparison. I have a 2021, 402A 3.5L with every option minus the front torsen and folding work station. I don't really consider the autostop start as a desired option I am glad the original owner opted for the autostop start delete. I still need to get into the Forscan and turn on the glare free lights capability.. The adaptive lights are cool as they shift left and right when turning but I hear the Glare Free capability is even more awesome. So cool we can activate it with a push of a coupke keys on the laptop.

I hate that Ford has stripped away some of the best features of the earlier Tremors. It is still a fantastic truck regardless. I totally enjoy my truck for what it is and try not to focus on what it isn't.
 
I'm pretty thrilled with my 21 402a, I think it may have every option other than work surface and folding underseat storage? Is there a full option list somewhere I can check?
