DEARBORN, Mich., March 29, 2022 – Today Ford introduces the F-150 Rattler, a distinctive, rugged, entry-level addition to its 2023 F-150 lineup for adventure-seeking customers looking for a stylish truck with standard four-wheel drive for exceptional off-road capability.

“Our new F-150 Rattler offers aspiring adventurers an off-road option with expressive looks and capability in one package,” said Todd Eckert, Ford truck group marketing manager. “This truck builds off the F-150 off-road legacy while allowing us to introduce new customers to the right blend of styling and value in the F-150 lineup.”

The F-150 Rattler package is built off the XL series, with FX4 content featuring skid plates to help ensure Built Ford Tough protection for a confident off-road experience, electronic rear-locking differential for enhanced traction, hill descent control for precision throttle and braking on steep descents, and specially tuned off-road shock absorbers for increased stability over tough terrain. In addition, F-150 Rattler features rugged all-terrain tires for versatility and capability.

F-150 Rattler badging on the fender vents and rattlesnake-inspired graphics amplify its unmistakable appearance.

Onyx seats featuring burnished bronze accents and impeccable stitching match the trim on the instrument panel to create a unique interior in keeping with the desert-inspired theme of the new F-150 Rattler.

So its a cheaper version of the Tremor?

 

[Kanuck]

Poor mans Tremor or Raptor. Dual exhaust for the 3.5 EB or 5.0? Here is a Xl with the options a lot of guys are ordering.

 

[Mtnman1]

Supercrew only? Freakin dumb.
RCSB best for off road yet Ford refuses to offer it.

 

[Bluesman]

I don't like the name, I envision "I think I hear something loose in the door or the suspension..."

Or perhaps a more expensive FX4.... I'm not really sure where this fits in the F-150 lineup. Unless it has some kind of lift or a bigger tire, I don't really see why it exists. Maybe a counter offer to the Ram Backcountry?

Maybe with the lower trim this will be a truck people can actually order and get without waiting months and months. Not my cup of tea but someone will "bite" to get a truck faster....

Definitely a Backcountry competitor. I'm seeing no lift, and a slightly smaller tire than a Tremor. While it looks closer on the scale to FX4 rather than Tremor, it will be interesting to see how it compares to the base Tremor. Should only be 3-5k price difference assuming you spec the 3.5. I imagine that's the only way to get the dual exit bumper as well, same as black appearance.

 

[RedundanT]

Yawn. Give us a modern version of the 1995 Lightning.

 

[BCP28]

Agreed, instantly thought of this as synonymous to the Ram Backcountry package. Seems like it's a mix of STX/FX4 equipment in its own unique appearance package. I'm guessing there's nothing new here in terms of actual hardware.

 

[doocatracer08]

got to be a joke ? right?
its not friday yet

 

[MallCrawler]

Keep an eye out for the rumored Max Rake package

 

[Silenze]

So this has the 8 inch infotainment screen?

 

[StoneGray22]

Also looks like they just took the HDPP wheels and coated them black.

Must have excess inventory of those since you can only get the HDPP package on 301 or lower. Would have loved that on 302 or 500!
