Ford F-150 Tremor Prototype Spied As Silverado Trail Boss Rival
Sponsored Links
The upcoming Ford F-150 Tremor was just spotted testing in prototype form. When it’s released, the F-150 Tremor will rival the Chevrolet Silverado Trail Boss and GMC Sierra AT4.
Rumors that General Motors’ crosstown rival, Ford Motor Company, was working on a new Ford F-150 Tremor have been swirling for a while now, with the new off-roader variant slotting in nicely alongside the Tremor’d version of the 2021 Ford Ranger. What’s more, buyers can already get the Tremor upgrade with the Ford F-Series Super Duty, so it makes sense to offer a Tremor version of the F-150 as well.
As evidenced by these latest spy photos, the upcoming Ford F-150 Tremor appears to come with similar equipment as the current Super Duty Tremor, rocking a taller ride height thanks to new suspension components, as well as tow hooks and 18-inch wheels wrapped in General Grabber A/T tires. The rubber is measured at 275/70R18, or 33 inches.
We also spot a dual exhaust treatment for the rear end. And although this prototype model may not have them equipped, the Ford F-150 Tremor is expected to come with assist steps as well.
To note, Ford offers the Tremor as a package, not a trim level. The upcoming Ford F-150 Tremor will also be offered as a package, rather than a trim level.
Ford currently offers the F-150 with the FX4 package, which makes it a rival for the Chevy Silverado Z71. However, the upcoming Tremor package will give it the capability to take on the Chevy Silverado Trail Boss and GMC Sierra AT4, as well as the Ram Rebel, slotting just below the F-150 Raptor in Ford’s model lineup.

Don’t all F150s tremor and shutter while driving?…
Dearborn’s Repair Offense Federation…
only because they are towing chevys
Towing used Chevys probably, used Chevys towing new F150?, ritualistic……
First On Repair Docks……
Lol, they go in first, with chevys on the trailer behind them
All this shows is that Unlike GM who still hasn’t shown an affordable response to the Raptor, Fore takes maybe 1-2 years to respond to the Trailboss/AT4.
I really like how Ford set up packages and not trim levels. The blacked out look is dated and over done, everyone has black wheels, black grills and door handles look cheap but the off road options are nice for those of us that go in the back country but want our truck looking nice other than like some base model truck. Chrome bumpers are more durable, aluminum wheels look nicer and last longer and painted or chrome door handles give a nice look. Adding the AT4 goodies to an SLE or Trailboss goodies to an LT while keeping the look of the SLE or LT is much preferred. Ford allows you to take an XLT truck, add it’s top off road package and pick your style with regular, chrome or sport styling and options. Also let black wheels and larger wheels die already, especially on the off road trim, there is no reason a 20″ wheel or larger should come on those trucks as some of us aren’t posers and need all aspects to work off the pavement and a 20″ wheel reduces that, increases cost and decreases the ride.
Wack.
I had a Ford Tremor a long time ago. I changed the spark plugs and wires, and the tremor went away.
