In general I do not see many Rangers and I have not yet seen another Tremor on the road out here in the Vegas area. Some travels to Utah, AZ and CA, just not many Rangers around. I am just thinking the USA market is not yet "aware" there is a Ranger in the USA again. That or were put off with the exaggerated rake from the factory. The truck looks awesome level, the Tremor stance is what the FX4 should have had too. Might have helped with early adoption. The engine is way under rated too. I was one of those people for a while.
Man your gonna love that truck. Coming from another crossover, the Tremor is so smooth off road lol. Well, we still have it, a '16 Honda Pilot AWD w/mods but not it feels like a sedan compared to the Ranger. It served me well on trails and camping trips but once it cools down I can't wait to take the Tremor for a weekend camping trip. I will just need to bring my tent instead, will miss sleeping in the Pilot.Hey all, new owner here as of last week. I sort of dumb lucked into getting one. I had not been in the market for a new car, but had paid off my 2017 Outback and started getting calls from local dealers wanting to buy it. Had been considering a truck at some point so just randomly popped over to local dealer and they had a 2021 Lariat Tremor with tow package on the lot that someone had ordered and was in the process of backing out on (hope he isn't on this forum ... if so, thanks and sorry). They offered me $500 over MSRP and gave me good trade in on my Outback, so two days later this was in my driveway.
I have only done small mods at this point (tailgate dampener lol and stubby antenna), but plan on replacing the steps with a true slider (Shrockwork on order), putting on some flaps (these tires throw rocks like crazy), and putting a folding hard cover on the bed so I can feel comfortable transporting gear in the bed.
True on the tires. Will the ko2 in the exact same size as stock tires on tremor fit with no rub? I know we are close to our crash bar’s already
So I finally took her out off-roading and she did great…until we got back to pavement and the General Grabbers started slinging rocks all over the place. Even after pulling into a gas station after driving about 5 miles, there were a ton of rocks embedded in the tires. One of the design flaws these tires lack compared to BFG KO2s and others are the little rock rejectors in between the tread. After these tires wear I’m definitely making the switch back to BFG KO2s.
I know exactly how you feel. It almost feels like you’re driving down a street with people tossing rocks at your truck. I can’t wait to swap them out. Pretty good marketing as they definitely “Grab” all the rocks.I only have 350 miles on my truck, but I've already had a number of uncomfortable experiences with the rock chucker tires. So I got the Gatorback mudflaps (for the front, my state requires the dealer install them in the rear). I haven't used them yet, but they look like they offer substantial protection.
Sorry for the dirt, I swear I washed it yesterday.
Yeah Honestly that is the only thing I do not like about these tires. Otherwise they do good off road. Been in sand and rocky terrain, awesome otherwise. They are not exactly cheap, seem priced about the K02 so I guess General gave Ford a better discount?
