[Tractorable]

What do you fellas think of the new Super Duty Tremor package? Here’s a good video of the new gas and diesel Tremors playing in a rock quarry.

The driver needs all the help he can get.

I love it with the 7.3, what a great all-around HD PU! I'm waiting for my local dealer to get one in for a test drive, just for fun. I seriously doubt I would trade my F150 for one because, A) there will be no deals on them for a a while due to being new and all, and, B) I don't really "need" a HD PU, and would probably grow tired of the stiff ride after a while. Roads here in rural SE Ohio are horrifically bad.

But I love the concept & execution. Should be a big hit.

In low range, the gearing is so good it could get by with a lot less power and still be fine.

 

[ovrszd]

Very hard to have good gearing in both high side and low side. I'm guessing they use somewhere 2.7 low side gearing in Tcase. Also guessing high 3s or low 4s in axles. With 35" tire that's not very low. So the power will be better appreciated in high side than low side.

I wonder why they didn't compare towing capacity BP to BP and/or GN to GN?

 

[ovrszd]

I admit I didn't watch all of the video. My brain cells were having tremors. Maybe they'll do a more realistic video at some point. Trailer towing would make much more sense than offroading on a path that my wife's Grand Cherokee could do.

 

[Tractorable]

They say the Super Duty Tremor is more off-road capable than and regular SD but keeps all of its towing credentials. Not as off-road oriented as the RAM power wagon, but doesn’t sacrifice towing or payload either.

Only thing is, the price tag makes my wallet Tremor.

 

[ovrszd]

I didn't check out any pricing of the package.

Personally, I like the 2" lift and selectable rear locker. Not buying much else that makes it more proficient offroad.

In my World the buyers would be young men looking for status, or old rich guys looking for status. Neither would consider getting it dirty or scratched up.

The local farmers would turn away because of the 2" lift. It's hard enough to get something out of the bed of new trucks at normal height let alone jacked up 2". If they did buy it they'd remove the bed and put on a flat bed with a bale stabber.

I ordered one back in November and it came in today. Picking it up tomorrow

That is one sweet ride! Congrats to ya. Give us a report after you put a few miles on it.

They are nothing more than lift kits, skid plates. The new 10 speed tranny is big improvement, front and rear lockers and sway bar disconnects would be needed to be real off road. Don't buy diesel unless you got a special need it will takes way to many miles to break even. Then new tranny makes the greater torque less important.

Both the F250 & 350 diesel are limited to the same bumper tow rating (15,000) as the gas engines with the tremor package so spending the extra 8k is literally a waste of money unless you are 5th wheeling and need a little extra. The 350 diesel has a higher 5th wheel rating than the gas equipped 350 but it is only a 1,900lb advantage

Here are the specs

Looks great, congrat's! Did you go with the 7.3? Looking forward to your feedback.

Awesome!!! Love the color and black out look!!!! What engine did you get? Real curious to hear about the 7.3L gasser!!!

Does your truck set level?? Don't know why manufacturers think they need to build low in the nose...…

Please give us a useage report over the next few months. If you start a separate thread, come back here and give us a link in case we miss it. Thanks!!!

It's the 7.3 and I put about 5 miles on it yesterday before they had to take it for the IDOT inspection. My current truck is an F350 diesel and the first thing I noticed is that the ride of the new truck is better. That surprised me because I had a gas F250 before the diesel and when I took the diesel home my wife commented on how much better the 350 rode over the 250. I figured the weight of the diesel softened the ride

I'm picking it up today and I'll post some feedback after a I get some actual miles on it

 

[dodge man]

Nice looking truck, I agree, great looking color combo. I hate to pry, but how much $$$$.

 

[bdeboer]

Great color!
