    Love the review! Love my 2022 Tremor. may trade up to 2024 or 2025 when I see the new changes. 3.5 is a BEAST!. Low package gauge cluster is FAR NICER than the high-package. I opted for the high package for other reasons. Just hate the digital gauge cluster for lack of customizations. Front Torsen option is amazing too. Best model for F150 trucks. 2024+ model tremor might be over priced though SADLY. 2022 had a few more options - heated steering wheel and mirrors

    I wish for would go to the straight front door window area. I drive a lot woth the window down amd my arm resting on that area and its just not comfortable with the fords so i buy the more dependable tundra for the past couple decades. But i want a new trruck with nice new interior now and the new tundra has the new update but front end is ugly in my opinion and they have been having issues with the new tundra so now im thinking about buying this truck but in the high option. Just hate that window door area that goes down

    2023 or 2024 Tremor which is better?

    • @DownShifting76
      @DownShifting76  Місяць тому +1

      @DavidFlores-du3rm from a purely aesthetic perspective I like the 2024 as I personally do not like to looks of the 2024 grill area.
      From a functionality view the 2024 hits the mark of what I felt the Tremor should be from the beginning with the modularity of items like the front bumper to add accessories like a brush guard, winch, or off road lights.
      Hope this helps and thank you very much for watching!

    Which do you think is more comfortable to drive on the highway for long distances, Tremor or Platinum? And compared to the Raptor? Thanks.

    • @DownShifting76
      @DownShifting76  6 місяців тому +2

      @Nate-zy5ce IMO for any long-distance driving 100% the Platinum is the way to go.
      I absolutely love the Raptor but the reality is that it's a very niche market for usability and utility that most of the time will never see its full potential and that's okay, they are still awesome trucks.
      The Tremor has done a great job of fitting in somewhere in the middle of that market and Ford really needed it to compete with GM's Trail Boss package.
      So as a prior Platinum owner myself it wins in every category for any road trip driving!
      Thank you very much for watching!!!

      Thanks for that thorough reply. A f/u question if you will: I've seen numerous youtube raptor vids saying with springs front and rear instead of leafs in the rear, the raptor is a buttery smooth highway drive almost like a BMW or Mercedez. Though I've the raptor seats some say firm, others say comfortable. But so many say the F150s with leafs not springs in the back just drive rougher than the all springs of the raptor. Now the Platinum seems to have the most luxurious seats, but I wonder if that's enough to make up for the leafs in the back instead of springs. Any thoughts on this? And how smooth a highway drive do you think the Platinum is, how would you describe it, and how would you compare it to the raptor? Is the Platinum highway drive clearly smoother and more comfortable than the Tremor? Other? I will try to test drive, but not sure I'll find a place that has all three.@@DownShifting76

      @@Nate-zy5ce The Raptor definitely has a smooth ride for sure since its design inspiration is based on Baja and Dakar Rall race suspension designs. The downside IMO is when it comes back to the utilitarian side like loading the bed heavily or towing a trailer.
      As for the seats, the Raptor again has its own place in the market but is definitely no Platinum comfort. Think of the Recaro seat option in the Mustang Vs Lincoln Navigator. Not quite as drastic of a difference but that's the idea.
      As for the leaf springs on the Platinum, again IMO it's a proven design that when combined with quality components can offer a comfort level and a quiet interior, and still have the versatility to haul a fair load or tow a trailer with no major issues.
      Hope this helps and good luck on the truck search!

      Thanks. All good info. If I was to go the raptor route I would get the all black seats not the blue recaro seats. So many aspects to consider. Have a good one.@@DownShifting76

      This link has a quick interior view of the vents. They do have the potential to be functional but would require some modifications to be functional.

    The trim is called code orange, you should know something as simple as that before you review a vehicle 🤔

      @user-kq7gi7eh1s Actually it's active orange. Direct from Ford.
