Why Tremor not Raptor (your reason)?

Was just a joke. My wife never limits what I can do. Raptor doesn’t fit our needs, but the Tremor does. We bought it when we were getting an oil change on my 2020 F150XLT. Never planned on even considering a new truck,but drove the Tremor off the lot instead. Glad I did 👍
Fair enough.

I hadn't really planned on buying my Tremor either. However, I had kind of a close call with a serious medical issue and realized life was too short not to drive the truck I wanted. While I would love a Raptor, I didn't want to spend that much and it wouldn't fit in my garage. That's one of the big reasons I didn't buy another Super Duty.
 
Cost and towing capacity were the two main reasons I went with the Tremor over the Raptor, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't secretly plotting a way to get myself into a 24 or newer Shelter Green Raptor. Dang that thing looks good!!!
 
I had a 2020 802A Raptor, great trunk, Raptors are the best looking truck and I love them. But, as others state, towing and cargo capacity. Plus, when I went to get back into a truck, Raptors price were through the roof as were most trucks - I paid more for my Tremor than I did for my Raptor.
and...I have this for my Baja - offroad, jumping etc.

That green is really sharp

Yeah, if they offered the 27 tremor in that color, it would get very expensive for me!
 
For me it was width and towing capacity. You can't even fit a raptor in a lot of automatic car washes.

F250 OTHO. I walked out of financing on a 2026 F250 Lariat Tremor 6.7HO on New Years Eve and ended up with the 2025 Tremor later that day.

Still sometimes regret it but I never really could get used to the solid front axels on HD trucks
 
New here with a 2026 Tremor, 402A package with V8, traded in my 2019 Raptor with every bell and whistle it came with at the time. Raptor R cost wanted that V8 sound back) and bed load capacity were the two main reasons. Added the Ford Performance branded Whipple Supercharger and a tuned exhaust and still saved at least $20k versus the R.
 
Good choice. I'm heading that direction but setting up off-road mods first.
