Tremor Rake - We All See It

[Yeti]

Saw one in person for the first time yesterday…. The rake isnt nearly as bad. Truck looks amazing.

Interesting. The front of that Tremor looks to be higher than others I've seen. It may just be an optical illusion.

The first thing I'm going to do (after seeing if the truck will make it up my back yard) is to hook up my trailer (830 pound tongue currently) then climb in to the bed and jump up and down. that should put well over 1170 pounds over the axle. We'll see how this puppy squats.

That's a pretty hefty trailer!

Seems like the Tremors have about the same rake as my XLT. A guy I work with put a 2 inch level in his and it really seemed to level the truck out about perfect. I considered doing the same but wonder how the truck would sit loaded with a trailer then. Nothing more obnoxious than pulling a trailer at night and trying to light up the moon.

Not to mention the fact that more rear squat (due to hitch weight) = less front traction (steering/braking)

Saw the F150 Tremor in person the first time the other day and test drove it. I like the rake exactly how it is. It looked much less pronounced than the pre-prod pictures.

And the exhaust sounds fantastic.

Yeah, I am thrilled with the exhaust sound on mine. I had a tuned 3.5EB with CAI and MBRP exhaust. The stock exhaust on the Tremor sounds so much better than the exhaust I had, more subtle and just the right about of deep rumble. I think they nailed it. It'll never sound like a Coyote, but it sounds good for what it is.

Nah it does look noticeably higher than the non tremor it was next to. Still needs a level imo but I’d still buy it.

I've had my Iconic Silver Tremor for almost two weeks...love the heck outta that thing.
I measured the top of the wheel wells: 38.5 front, 42.5 rear. It's not ugly by any means, but mo' level would be mo' bettah.

I'm thinking that a wheel well liner in the rear would minimize the appearance of the rake by darkening the well - especially on a silver truck. Anybody have first-hand experience with a liner that they would recommend?

My plan is to spray the inside of the wheel well with undercoating and if it holds too much mud, then put the liner on. My thinking is that the undercoating might deaden the sound a little. Probably very little, but no harm done.

Thanks, Ken! A sprayed-in undercoating is one of my options...I will be watching for your update...

The pitch of your driveway makes your truck look really good leveled. Love the iconic

You may have to be VERY patient. I'm ordering a 2022 ASAP, so I suspect it may be Spring before I get to give it a try.
