I'll believe it when I see it. All the literature before it was released said auto 4x4 was going to be standard too....

If Tremor had a V8 for MY22 I would have gotten one.

Should I laugh or cry in EcoBoost..? Honestly, the 5.0 in my 21 was not what the 5.0 in my 15 was. The cylinder deactivation is something that bothers me and was relatively noticeable in the 21.

If rapid red was an option, I'd order one.

I also heard from Ford Authority that the Tremor will no longer offer the standard 400A configuration for '23. This spec sheet (time will tell if this is real or not) also has evidence to back this up. It states under Interior/Comfort that it will offer the 12'' screen in the center stack as standard. The Tremor currently offers the 8" screen as standard. IMO, I still hope that Ford still offers this configuration for 2023 because I love (relatively) affordable off-road trucks. And if you're not careful with options on a Tremor, it can be almost as expensive as a Raptor at the end of the day. Maybe having the less expensive 5.0 V8 will offset the price hike a bit?

Yeah. Tremor definitely deserves a red color option. Personally, I'd like to see Race Red as an offering.

Maybe they are deleting the 400a so it doesn't have to compete with the Rattler? Maybe?

They deleted several of the higher _00 trims.

If that means that the Rattler will cost around $55K when it comes out (which is what a 400A Tremor costs right now), then I'd be more worried about the Rattler overlapping with the Tremor. Personally, I don't believe the Rattler is a very good value because from what I can tell it's no different than an FX4 (apart from the styling changes) and will without a doubt cost more than one.

It's FX4+appearance. It's only a $1500 option

On a base XL with 2.7L EB

@hotrodmex If I'm reading this correctly does that mean the Rattler Package will have dual exhaust with the 5.0L V8?

V8 is no longer available with Rattler. They're also discontinuing the Rattle package sometime in September.

 

[TylerNinetyTwo]

I thought they were discontinuing the V8 as part of the Rattler Package in September, not the entire package itself?

Yeah first it was just the V8, then someone who works at a dealership said theyre closing the whole package mid sept.
