It's funny; they've been talking about this since 2022. Four years later, they finally release it, and I couldn't be more underwhelmed. Over on the Tremor forums, it's not getting much love. It's going over like a wet blanket in the middle of January.

I had high hopes for the fenders and bumpers, and while I'd like to reserve my opinion on the front bumper until they release the full wrap version, I must admit that I am lukewarm on it. The fenders will allow for 40's on a small lift, but most don't like how they went with a square shape on a round fender, which I also dislike, as it screams GM!

The biggest issue for me is from AEV it’s a $30,000 upgrade to an already expensive vehicle. A Larait Tremor with the 7.3L Gas once you start throwing options at it is $90,000 alone. Now I’m supposed to up that to $120,000 for the AEV lift, wheels, bumpers, and tires? And that’s missing the coolest feature every 12 year old wants, the Snorkel (Raised Air Intake). It’s just a lot of money!

AEV has always been grossly overpriced. But yes, most will simply buy the parts they want and modify their current trucks, myself included.

I personally love the bumper and square fenders, but tastes and colors… At least there is no denying it’s a good thing to have more options for full size trucks.

Ehh, round peg, square hole, GM things, but to each his own.

I'm alright with the front bumper but not enough for the premium price.. The wheels are a miss which is a bummer because I dig the RAM Salta wheels. The only thing they could possibly get me to buy is a snorkel and that is not even offered.
