Afrigather The 2024 Ford F-150 Tremor would not want orange trim to face out. It is noticeably increased than the everyday F-150, however you do not actually admire the additional inch or so till you climb into the cabin. The meaty all-terrain tires on black wheels go properly with the silver exterior of the Tremor I will be driving for every week, and there is no denying a slight feeling of superiority sitting behind the wheel. This truck sits up there.
It is also priced up there. The 2024 F-150 Tremor begins at $66,345, however the Iconic Silver truck sitting in my driveway is a whopping $81,865. The overwhelming majority of that comes from the $11,710 Tremor 402A Excessive Gear Group, which provides issues like heated second-row seats, leather-based trim, a head-up show, and extra importantly, off-road goodies like a Hello-Lock switch case and Torsen entrance differential, amongst different issues. However, in case you’re that antsy for off-road prowess, the 2024 F-150 Raptor begins at $80,435.

This truck additionally has the three.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 versus the standard-issue 5.0-liter V-8, although Ford tries very arduous to make it sound deep and throaty. That, mixed with the decidedly rugged styling that is ever-so-slightly tweaked for 2024, it actually offers this rig a go-anywhere persona that screams ‘Murica.
I will be spending time on highways, backroads, and even just a few trails throughout my prolonged drive, so shoot over your questions and I will do my finest to reply them.
What’s Good So Far?
- Surprisingly good trip. For a truck with an off-road-focused suspension and aggressive Common Grabber A/Tx tires, I used to be anticipating extra harshness and noise on the freeway. The Tremor is definitely a easy operator for city jungles.
- Unbelievable type inside and outside. Sure, aesthetics are subjective. However Ford’s minor facelift pushes all the precise buttons for a clear, aggressive-looking truck whereas not getting too loopy within the macho division. The inside format with its plethora of handbook controls is a good match for this section, too.
- Path Flip Help. It feels bizarre to make use of at first, nevertheless it positively helps this beefy truck slip by means of smaller corners. And sure, it is enjoyable.

What’s Dangerous So Far?
- Questionable high quality. I’ve skilled just a few harsh upshifts from the 10-speed transmission accelerating underneath regular throttle. By harsh, I imply loud thuds hitting arduous sufficient for me to query if one thing was partaking or disengaging when it wasn’t speculated to. After which there’s the moisture contained in the headlamps inflicting them to fog up throughout a easy hand wash at a neighborhood self-service bay. Apparently, this can be a regular factor for contemporary Ford lights, that are vented. Nonetheless, not precisely confidence-inspiring for an $81,000 automobile.
- 16.0 Miles Per Gallon. I’ve already coated about 200 miles within the Tremor, the overwhelming majority on open freeway at 75 mph. 16 mpg is under the EPA score of 18 mixed, by no means thoughts the freeway score of 21 mpg. And I wasn’t working with a heavy foot.
- $81,865 MSRP. Want I say extra right here?
