Picked up my new MY23 Tremor about 2 weeks ago now and I am loving it. Still getting used to it and haven't done a whole lot of driving yet (I work from home). This is my first truck, so I didn't have a lot of expectations. But just as my everyday vehicle, I am really impressed. It's comfortable, smooth and easy to drive, plenty of power, and roomy both inside and out. I hope to get it offroad for the first time here in the next week or so.

Here's a couple of picks from the day I picked it up:

Since then I've added the obligatory damper:

And built the cross-bed divider using @KingsPoint75's excellent instructions:

Got the Line-X spray in bedliner:

And the BakFlip Revolver 4Xs:

Finally installed the Viofo A119 V3 dashcam:

Probably done for a little while with mods. Might ask for the TrekStep rear mount step and the Start-X remote start for my birthday which is coming up.

Thanks to the great community here. I've never been one to add mods to any of my vehicles in the past beside aftermarket stereo upgrades. But all the helpful people here made doing this stuff super easy and fun!

Nice looking truck.

Why would you need an aftermarket remote start? I thought it was standard on the Lariats, or was it deleted?
And I'd throw some RokBloks mud flaps on there to help keep that sexy truck looking...well, sexy

Remote start is in the 501A package for the Lariats and it was not orderable when I ordered in Oct. I will add the RokBloks to the list for sure.

Looking sharp and I see you’re off to a good start!

I’m pretty sure you can remote start your truck with the FordPass app. I have a bare bones XLT w/o tech package and it’s available on the app.

Definitely can start it from the app. Maybe I'll get used to doing it that way but my old car had the remote start on the keyfob so that is what I'm used to.

Got it - old habits and all that.

As this is your 1st truck I'll overlook the damper.

Looks good. :thumbsup:

Good looking rig!
About a year ago, that dissected tree carcass in the bed would have been the most expensive accessory.
