I like the Maverick, especially the base XL fwd hybrid and the XLT FX4 packages. They seem to offer some real value. I don't like the idea of "Tremor"-izing everything at Ford, as it dilutes the Tremor badge. It would be like Jeep deciding to offer a "Rubicon" package on the Renegade just to...

I re-read the thread and don't see where anyone said "don't overthink" the safe use of recovery gear. The original question was about a receiver shackle mount for recovery. As long as one is buying a solid mount from a reputable manufacturer of towing/recovery gear, there's no need to...

I have a Reese shackle mount in my truck receiver. I also considered Curt, among others, but the Reese was cheaper at that time. Neither has a fancy off-road branding markup. Both companies make solid towing equipment, and the shackle mount is a solid piece of steel. Mine takes a 7/8"...

You are failing to mention that p-metric tires installed on light trucks/SUVs are de-rated by ~9%. The load index is still sufficient for safety on the vehicles that include p-metric OEM tires, but those LTXs that you reference for an LX470 do not quite provide 9500 lbs of capacity - well short...

The quality of service at my local Subaru dealer is miles ahead of the Ford dealer across the street, but the Subaru service prices are nearly double.

What level did you have installed? I thought it looked leveled, but decided that was one of the optical illusions of the RCSB since it wasn't mentioned.

That's a great looking truck! The black things are aerodynamic aids to help direct airflow around the rear wheels. I'm not sure about a hidden winch mount, but I know that the Westin tray on my 2020 F150 is the same part number that a 2021 uses. It's pretty compact, easy to install, and...

Sell the wheels and tires. I don't know how desirable those wheels are in the Ram community, but the OE Transforce tires are generally disliked. You might get a thousand bucks or so for the wheels and tires, give or take a couple hundred depending on demand. I sold OE 20's from my F150 with...

From a practicality standpoint, yes, it looks like Ford did a great job. If you want people to know you're driving an electric truck and would be mortified if it were mistaken for any old F150, then the Chevy (or Hummer) nailed it. I hope Ram keeps a traditional bed profile so that any...

He probably bangs his head getting in because he's accustomed to the F150 and hasn't adjusted yet. After a while, he'll probably adapt and bashing his head will no longer be an issue. I drive an F150. Every time I get in my dad's Buick, I bang my head, hard, because I forget how much I have...

Ford should have given the F150 Tremor Fox 2.0 shocks, at a minimum, instead of the Tremor branded shocks that are arguably no more special than the suspension of any other F150 4x4 or FX4.

Cactus Gray is a great color on everything Ford offers it on! It's the color I'd get if I bought a Bronco or a Ranger, and if it were available, it would look fantastic on an F150 Tremor with its yellow-orange accents.

Nikon Aculon binoculars are supposed to be good, and they're usually around $100, depending on power and size.

I bought my son a pair of Athlon Neos G2 8x42 binoculars for Christmas. I've been pretty impressed for $100. Right now, Adorama has the Athlon Ares 8x36 on sale for $140. Considering that they usually retail for close to $300, and based on my experience with the Neos, I can't imagine that...

I will add, the base F150 Tremor is a pretty stupendous value. It's not much more than an STX FX4 with the 3.5TT. I built a new STX 4x4 like mine and it was over $53K; its MSRP had increased over $6,000 more than my 2019.

That is a base Tremor with the only option being the Torsen front differential. A comparably equipped Tremor requires the Tremor High equipment group, because the Silverado ZR2 is standard with heated leather seats and driver memory, and that truck lists for $68,970. A base ZR2 is $69,195 -...

The Multimatic shocks, front & rear e-lockers, high clearance front bumper, and exhaust tucked away behind the rear bumper for improved clearance elevate it above the Tremor. The Tremor is much more comparable to the Trail Boss, with only the optional Torsen front differential being a major...

Honestly, GM took a completely different design philosophy from what Ford and Ram took with the Raptor and TRX. The Raptor and the TRX really aren’t even comparable to one another because of the power and fuel economy difference. For buyers who will never get their truck dirty, the Raptor and...

Not just the 2022 limited. The refreshed WT, Custom, & Custom Trail Boss get the new exterior design cues but have a carryover interior. The refreshed LT trim and above have the new interior.

The ZR2 will have an interior based on the one in the lower picture, with ZR2 specific trim details. The pictured interior is either a LTZ or High Country. Lower spec trucks will have carryover interiors, even after the MCE.
