Tremor Owner's Club

[Golf17]

congrats on the Tremor! Quick question for, my truck only gave me 400 miles on a full tank, how did you get yours to give you 600?

You too! That DTE calculation is based upon obviously how much fuel is in the tank and your current average mpg. So typically when you pick your truck up the mpg average is so low because the truck has barely driven and just idles In the dealership parking lot. I had to drive 450 miles all highway home so as my mpg average crept up and I filled my tank right before I got home, which is what you see in that picture, that distance to empty is a lot higher. Ford advertises an average 18 mpg for this truck, so in theory you should see 648 miles till empty based on 18mpg with the 36 gallon tank that comes in the 402a package

I appreciate the response, that totally makes sense!

Out with the old, in with the new. Officially joined the Club today. I bailed on my retail order for a few reasons, and picked up an almost identical build about 450 miles away from me. It was a hike over the last 24 hours driving my old truck down and bringing the new Tremor home, but totally worth it. Short and sweet, this truck is awesome. Aesthetically it’s my favorite truck that I’ve owned, and the tech in the 402a package along with bluecruise is amazing. Averaged just shy of 20mpg with most of that being highway driving at 70ish mph average and plenty of New York traffic on my way from Maryland to Mass. Last quick thought, my rake with a full tank of gas is 42.5 vs 38.5 back to front. I had the dealer do OEM wheel well liners and it definitely helps.. to me the rake is definitely not as pronounced In person as some pics have made it look. Whiteytremor you’re going to love this color, looks so good with the black and orange!

Beautiful truck! Congrats man!

Hi all, I’m officially in, like others here I was extremely lucky to find my Tremor (402a), this was a customer order that ended up not wanting it in the end. His loss was my gain. And no dealer mark up! I was reluctant about the Velocity Blue at first, but boy does it look fantastic in person!

Congrats! I too wasn’t immediately sold on the blue, my family was shocked that I brought it home. Something about seeing it in person. Kind of like my old 13 gen, Tuxedo Black with a nice metallic.

I love the blue and wanted blue but my dealership had the white one in stock and when I saw it, I had to have it and couldn't wait for another color. I've never owned a white truck but I agree it looks great. I

What PSI are you guys running in the tires? I know the door jam sticker says 35, but between the thin side walls of these SLs and the weight of the truck, they look pretty low/squished in my opinion.

Did a chalk test yesterday, finally got a consistent contact patch at 42psi front, 40 psi rear, cold. Put 50 miles on it today, gained a full MPG so far according to the computer and ride isn't noticeably stiffer.

Curious what's working for you all.

If/When mine actually arrives, I was going to start with 45/40 but since you saved me the time, it'll be 42/40... funny enough, even when I get the new wheels and tires, it'll still be around that range, just better sidewalls.

All mine are @ 37 psi from the dealership and I am getting 17 MPG :/

Tripped to Austin for the F1 race this weekend, Ford has a cool little event going on down town, the Tremors are out in full force, and we got a fun ride in a Bronco Wildtrack.

Honestly didn’t even check this till halfway on my drive home the other day ( my bad) but mine were around 42ish each. Ride was good and got pretty much got that 20mpg highway as advertised.

Jealous that you're at the race. Wanted to go again this year but didn't want to go through the hassle of crossing the border during these COVID times.

Still on the hunt for an exhaust mod. With the single inlet, dual outlet muffler we have, full custom will be the only option, no other raptor/3.5 exhausts will fit.

think I'll try this

I've consistently followed these forums as an owner but finally registered. I've had my 401a Tremor now for a month and love it. 1500 miles so far.

What color is that? Smoked Quartz? or Kodiak Brown? Sometimes is tough for me to tell sometimes!

My tires were a bit over-inflated when I drove it home from the dealer but I have been running them at around 43-44 depending on air temp and have not had any issues. My MPGs are tracking about where my tuned eco was getting in my 2014. The truck seems to do really good in the 60-65 mph range. I have made a few road trips to Dallas and Florida and running 80 it doesn’t do so hot. Maybe around 16 mpg. Oh well, lots of wind resistance with that rugged style. I’ll take the trade off any day.

oh one last note, Amazon lost the last antenna I ordered and I went looking again and found this one. Hoping the color is a close match.

anyone with their tremor yet, put in those side vent lights from f150leds? I’ve never been one to do anything to my trucks but theres definitely a few things on my radar with this truck. Wondering how easy it is to hook up to the aux switches?
