Hello! Just picked up a new to me '21 Lariat Tremor! I say to me but the truck is practically new with only 600 miles! It was purchased new by an older gentleman who sadly got terminal cancer shortly after the purchase and so it sat until recently when he started to liquidate his assets. :⁠-⁠(

He pretty much got all the bells and whistles on it. Lariat 501A pack, spray in bed liner, fold up tonneau cover, rubber floor mats, even added a cat back exhaust. I love it! It's pretty much exactly how I would have ordered it myself!

Haven't had it long so not much has been done to it. Removed the front license plate bracket, got a wireless android auto dongle, and did a bunch of Forscan changes. Have a couple of other plans in mind but those may be a bit down the road.

Take a look!

Congrats on the new Tremor!

I also just purchased a Tremor, a 2023 last Wednesday with roughly the same amount of miles. I doubt I got as good of deal on mine ?
I don't think anyone is getting good deals on any vehicles right now.

I'm not sure if it's still there but on Friday there was an Azure Gray Lariat Tremor in Aurora, CO for $1,000 off msrp. Plus no additional dealer add ons just the doc fees. Not a bad deal considering the times we're in.

That's pretty good! I was told by a different dealer that there was only 1 new 23 Lariat 501A Tremor within 700 miles of me. It is $50,900 if the other dealer would let it go for sticker. I was like damn, I'll take the "used" '21.

I just put a deposit down in Spokane, WA for a new '23 white Lariat Tremor with the 501A and tow package for msrp. There's a few out there but many want over sticker and I told them to sound sand.

I would tell them to pound sand too. I didn't need a new truck so I was more than willing to walk away.

So after having an unfortunate run in with the state department of health and human services in regards to emmision testing my 2010 Fusion Hybrid I had to get a 'new' vehicle. I test drove a 2019 Tacoma (they want how much for something that drives like an 80s beater?) and a 2019 Canyon 4 cylinder (nice but what is up with those seats and haven't they ever heard of balance shafts?). I couldn't find a local Maverick to test under 2x MSRP. I had my eyes on a 2019 Fusion hybrid as a fill the gap car but decided to test drive a 2021 Ranger on the lot for 50% more than my agreed with the wife budget just to see if I liked it and if I should look for one closer to budget.

It was everything I wasn't looking for. Quad cab, I wanted extended at the most. Sparkly velocity blue when I wanted white or silver. XLT with tech package with FX4 and tow when I wanted an XL 4x4 at most. Tricked out with running boards, hard folding bed cover, and a pair of console vaults (minus lock codes...). It drove beautifully though, truckish yes, but that is likely due to the bouncy a/t tires and me coming from 10 years of car ownership since my last pickup (2004 Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4). The seats were as I expected, comfortable but nothing to rave about. The engine was responsive, idled incredibly smooth. Cab was quite, even with the A/Ts, oh my gosh it had adaptive cruise.

The sales guy seeing my smile and smelling blood didn't take my lackluster refusal and talked me into a 24 hour test drive. The next day I was back to see if they had anything in the US closer to my in brain build that could be transferred and stay under the blue beasts price.

So now I own it.

I've still got a year and 16k miles on the base 3/36k to determine if I want the ford ESP warranty.

I wonder how strange it will be to see a FX4 on Conti Terrain Contact H/Ts....

Hello folks, new Ranger Tremor owner here. This will be my first Ranger although not my first Ford, previous vehicles include multiple F-150's, mustangs and a focus RS. I have no need for a F-150 anymore so moving into a mid-size truck was appropriate and I really do like the tremor package, just wish Ford would have added a heated steering wheel with the Lariat trim level. Looking forward to summer and the adventures that await!

Welcome Jason, nice looking Tremor! I went to opposite route and have a white Tremor I'm picking up on the 16th. I love black trucks too but it's way to much work out here with all the dust we have in the air. It's a full time detailing job. lol

Thanks and congrats to you when yours comes in. I can't even imagine the amount detailing required to keep a black vehicle clean in AZ, lol. But I am a fan of black, all my rides have been black, so anecdotally I need to keep my good luck up and running by continuing to get black vehicles.

They do look sweet when they're all done up. But I've tortured myself in the past when I lived back east between the pollen and the salt that was enough for me. lol

So I have to add this shameless plug....Have you ever tried the 303 Graphene? It has really great UV protection and helps with water spotting too. I've been using it for the past 3 years on my Saber Ranger along with the Graphene Detailer and it really makes darker colors pop.

There's a lot of info on both of them here.

Amazon in the US carries the bundle pack too.
