Just A Poor Man's Raptor? (2025 Ford F-150 Tremor EcoBoost)

[@OpenMikeTV88]

I traded in my 19 raptor for a 24 tremor. I'm having a lot more fun with the 5.0 tremor. The twin turbo always bothered me in the raptor and I'm not buying a raptor r anytime soon... also like 90% of people that own raptors I'm not desert running them lol. Tremor is much more practical imo. nice video!

[@ridingnice-eatinggood9216]

You can do more with 5.0 supercharged it, then you will get 700+ hp

Just brought one home yesterday. Carbon gray. 3.5L

Me too, same colour as yours, what a beautiful truck, it's a pleasure to drive

“Poor man’s raptor” 😂 these trucks are very expensive …

[@AlexAlex-gs1xh]

Then get your money up a raptor is 140k this is nothing 80k is too cheap.

[@JohnRayAllDay]

@AlexAlex-gs1xh oh yeah I forgot to get my money up !!

Looks like a well equipped truck with a lot of added features. I don't know why the manufacturers try to cut corners by leaving off the rear wheel well covers.

[@QuantumRAM]

$80k for a poor man’s raptor…? These prices have a gotten insane

[@dennishilligoss7386]

I’ve had a 3.5 raptor and now a tremor with the same engine. Pulled a travel trailer with both! Not one problem with either. If you want a 5.0 get a Mustang gt with a 6 speed trans.

[@mcgubber3500]

I wish I could afford a poor man’s raptor, ridiculous

[@d3m1g0d4]

Ben! Will be very happy if you ever reviewed an F150 platinum

[@jesusuribe1660]

5.0 for sure. Not really a fan of the new tailgate but families for camping that have an rv on hitch or alot in the bed it makes sense

[@CoyoteWoods-fm3gj]

If you are buying a pickup to go some places that you shouldnt go then just buy a regular pickup and do some modifications and it will cost you alot less, unless you like giving your money away.

[@Twisted_Biscuit]

Just got a 5.0 recently and not a huge fan, you have to really get into the throttle to get it to move even from a stop with no load. Drove a tremor with the 3.5 and it has way more low end torque without effort. 5.0 sounds better but that's low on the priority list. I'm also averaging 13mpg in the city 😪😪🤣.The tremor suspension is dialed, eats bumps, and feels planted. The Fx4 suspension is bouncy and very un-car like through low speed corners and bumps, although highway driving on Fx4 feels amazing and stable.

[@TKO593]

I just bought a ranger raptor with the 3.0 tt and had the ford tune installed. The torque is amazing with these engines and the fox suspension makes it ride great.

[@skylerdylan1005]

These hybrid trucks are great. Fast and fuel efficient. Rides like a car. Love it. Guess we’ll see how reliable they are as they age.

[@tewksburydriver8624]

The 3.5 has improved not become less reliable. Most of the major issues were resolved after 2020. It's a great engine.

[@flyonawall6521]

2:16 Seems like it would have been more practical if Ford had used the same design as the Honda Ridgeline. The tailgate tailgate should fully swing up.

[@WildCampingAlberta]

Tail gate is perfect for accessing fridge I was thinking. For me I would like that as long as it works with a canopy camper like a GFC, Alucab or RSI Smartcap.

[@alexgavieres8293]

Maybe review the Poor Man's Tremor? The Ford F-150 STX FX4. It's basically last year's Rattler package.

[@vipergts6073]

Just brought one home 2 days ago, carbon grey, what a beautiful truck! Poor mans raptor my ass lol 93,000 in Canada

[@paulpryor850]

Ford should bring back the 2.7 Ecoboost Lariat F-150s with the chrome bumpers. Old school pickup truck style! If you need all that other BS, turn to the aftermarket.....

[@PRO4XKEV]

Nice Truck. It sounds good, looks good.

[@thomcasey2005]

I would have to disagree. The 5.0 is rated for BETTER fuel economy than the 3.5. The 5.0 is rated at 24mpg on the Hwy, the 3.5 is 23mpg. I have verified the 5.0 mpg with a 2200mile trip from IN to FLA and back. 5.0 4x4 SuperCrew with 3 people and a bed full of stuff, averaging 75 on the highway running AC the whole way. We got a verified at the pump 24.3mpg for the entire trip. In the mountains and at altitude, yes the 3.5EB will be better, but for most of the US, the 5.0 will get better HWY mpg.

[@joeledge6384]

Sure is sad where we are in this country $79,000 for a half ton pickup. You can buy a brand new Ford F-350 nicely equipped for $65,000 full four-door with a hell of a lot more towing capacity

[@ptc3619]

Wow, $80k. That’s Platinum money.

[@kevingonz771]

I’d buy the truck today if it had the updated front lights

[@turdferguson2839]

Tremor F150 was 55k when it first came out and now you can't find one under 70k... just crazy.

[@rodjbosch]

A loaded XLT specced out the way i want is within 1k C$ of a 401a Tremor. I also lift a truck and put aggressive at tires on.....which the Tremor already does. Its a no brainer for me if i buy another F150 to go the Tremor route. If....

[@RedNeck_Zeus]

I prefer Ram's split tailgate. I get what Ford was going for with their implementation, being able to better access the bed while being hooked up to a trailer, but realistically idk how often that is actually an issue. I'd much rather be able to open the whole thing than just a small section in the center. More than anything though, i would prefer the a simple, cheap, and light-weight tailgate like on every truck before like 2010.

$80,000 is a poor man’s Raptor? Wow everyone is out of touch these days….

[@AlexAlex-gs1xh]

@@SWFLSlimJim no it's fully justified actually it's cheap I would pay 90k for this.

@ awesome for you dude! I work for my money and no way I’m paying $80k for a new truck.

@SWFLSlimJim then u need to do business.

[@TacTony]

​@AlexAlex-gs1xh I make $125,000/year and there is absolutely no way you can justify the prices on these trucks. You are the kind of people making prices like this when they should be no where over $60k for top of the line trucks.

[@AlexAlex-gs1xh]

@TacTony leave it u earn less than Me if u earn 125k a yr then u can't afford a 80k u need to earn atleast 160k a yr for able to afford this..

[@DemocratsRDemons]

I just bought a 24 Rebel with a V8. They had a 15% rebate back in Oct so my 72K truck was 20K off. Feel like I got way more truck then this Tremor, even though it has a couple of adds like a sunroof...

What's your definition of "poor man"?

[@gregpaige4430]

Not a fan of the gold trim and should come with a bed liner. GM's multifunction tailgate is gimmicky.

[@dnice362]

That trim makes this truck imo

[@kmb957]

For the price of trucks today, they should all come with a spray bed liner.

[@dnice362]

@ I do agree. That is almost as crazy as a civic costing almost 50k

[@kabloosh699]

More like upper middle class man's Raptor.

[@toddodle8688]

Ben, just curious what you thought about the handling? I have a 2018 F150 Platinum as well as a 2023 Bronco Badlands. I want a F150 that handles like the Bronco! My F150 sways back and forth a lot in town driving.

[@BenHardyCars]

New truck is tighter

[@robertannable9584]

I absolutely hate the stance on these tremors. Rear suspension is way too high compared to the front. Tires way undersized too. Same interior layout and plastics as an XLT. Shame on ford and their junky cheap leather.
