Giving up on 2024 Tundra. Any F150 Tremor owners?

That's sort of where I am now (1500 with the 5.3- constant issues) the Fords just seem CRAZY priced in comparison to the Tundra
Mine had a sticker of 62k, with discounts and dealer incentives it got down to 54k - but yes, still a big chunk of change. Also, not the best time for used car values/trade ins/etc...I didn't loose my ass on the trade in, but didn't do amazing.
 
Now I’m pissed…

2026 turbo F150’s are gonna have an exhaust particulate filter. Uggh. More complexity. Apparently they have been on cars in Europe for many years. Wondering if this is going to cause the same reliability issues in these gas trucks as it has in diesels. Anybody?

Wow that is not bad all things considered.

We only have 1 Ford dealer up here so a lariat trim level, regardless of engine choice, is asking 70K+...lots of negotiating, I'd be quite happy to get down to mid-50s

Better get a 2025 while you still can - at least locally we have some 2025s left - not sure about Tremors.


Looks like our local dealer has a 2025 tremor at around 58k out the door...

Be willing to travel of you save enough money. I saved 5 grand going to Texas.
 
I would buy the tremor, but in yiur shoes I probably wouldn’t buy a f150.

I’d take a serious look at the f250 gas motor of your choice, and if i was not a diesel guy id go f250 4x4 in any trim package with the Godzilla. If you can find a f250’in any trim package w the tremor off road add , and a Godzilla id snatch it up. Not a big price diff from a f150. Yes is slightly more expensive but relative to the heavy duty frame, big ass axles, solid axle up front, strongest and biggest steering components of the big three and any in its class, just a much heavier duty truck. Do you always need it, na, but if you need it and you don’t have it, yiur screwed. These new half ton trucks are just so aimed at groceries and ride quality, to keep prices competitive something has to suffer, and that’s durability. Don’t say no, just go at least look at a 250 in any flavor with a Godzilla. Report back!
