Here’s Why The Ford F-250 Platinum Tremor Is Worth $100,000 *My Dream Truck*

[@punkrockford]

Every Ford truck I have ever had has been able to delete the seatbelt notification. My ‘02, ‘05 F150 my ‘10 F250 and my current 2000 Excursion all had the ability to silence the seatbelt notification. That feature and the code to unlock the doors is the reason I only buy Ford trucks.

[@Alborn30]

Honestly you don’t realize how nice that code unlock is until you own a vehicle with it! Can’t count the amount of times I’ve stupidly locked my key in my 2009 MKX. Simply input the code and you’re in. Also very convenient to purposely lock your key in your car for the random situations where it’s smarter to do so.

[@punkrockford]

@@Alborn30 My ‘02 F159 didn’t have the keypad to unlock the door and I lost my keys riding my quad. If I had the keypad I would have just locked the keys in the truck. It was that day I decided I would never have a truck without it.

[@WatchJRGo]

Ford deserves every sale in the world just for how easy it is to turn off the seat belt minder 💯 And securicode is amazing, I give it to friends and neighbors all the time to get stuff out of the truck.

[@on-site4094]

The more tech less reliability over time Congratz great dealership. Marketing video

After owning 2 excursions with click the seat belt button to shut off the dinger, my expedition won’t do it and that is annoying.

[@Demonpixyb]

I used to think the same thing about that tailgate step. I lost a leg in a hit and run motorcycle accident a few months ago. Gives me a whole lot more love for that step! Can't lift my prosthetic up high enough without it.

[@RealRickCox]

The Tremor is a really nice looking truck with a lot of great features... but it will rock your pocketbook like a 8.0 tremor. Can't justify spending $100k on a pickup.

Honestly, and this comes from a guy who works in technology, this truck is the poster child for everything that is wrong with modern cars.Too much fluff, too much completely unnecessary garbage. A truck should be a truck and should have no features outside of basic things. Its really just pointless. And trucks are WAY too big and tall nowadays. Its absolutely ridiculous. Everyone has their thing, but this kind of vehicle is virtually everything I hate about modern cars and trucks.

[@Marco-cb3oh]

Agreed! And I call all that fluff “made to break “ and it won’t be cheap to fix, all you need in a truck is AC and crank up windows, if you need cameras to drive a truck go drive a car!

I dont really care for tech in cars but from what I can see in this vid this one of the better examples of how to do tech in a vehicle plently of physical controls all basic functions can be done by pressing buttons and not getting distracted and in the end you don't have to option all this tech if you don't want it. Try anything from VW's ID range where even for the most basic functions you have to do a deep dive into a screen with the most nonsensical menus and submenus and full of very unintuitive touch sensite controls

I'd like to see you build one and try to charge less. If you took inventory of all the components, wiring, lighting, tech, safety components, load handling features and towing technology, you would probably wonder why they aren't charging more. Go to Louisville, KY, take a factory tour, after that, you'll have a different mindset.

[@jeffclark4008]

Also, you don't HAVE to buy a Tremor and you don't HAVE to buy a Limited Tremor. If you don't want to spend $100k, you don't have to. Go buy an XLT, or a tradesman (Ram), or whatever package GM sells that's more of a value. Get an XLT with a gas engine and limites tech features and you could he as low as $65k. But don't get mad at the manufacturers for putting incredibly outfitted trucks out there and charging for the tech that's in them.

that side bed step is just a year thing, its not exclusive to the Tremor. It was Ford responding to GM doing it on the HD Sierra and Silverado. Ram might even do it too soon. Nissan even had the running boards that ran longer from the factory to also account for it for the XD.

In the past few years you couldn't count on someone else taking the arse kicking driving it off the lot then scooping up a deal 18-36 months later - those days may be coming back but for now (truck) prices are still holding.... If I had to buy a truck today - it would be between a Ford F250 and a RAM - the last 1/2 ton truck was going to be a RAM (in 2018) but the sales folks didn't "show up" when I went looking with money in my account to spend - so Ford it was.

[@LWRC]

Regarding the column shifter - can you put it into drive and using an open palm, push forward and upward on the shifter to move it into neutral without having it go into reverse? On past Fords, trucks or sedans, F250 or F150, conlumn or console shifters, you could not do that! For the column shifter, you actually had to pull the lever UP and put it into Neutral! The reason why this is important is in case the throttle gets stuck, you can just palm it and push the shifter from D into N without fear of going into R. This can be done on all Ram, GMC, Chevy, vehicles as well as BMW, Mercedes, Audi VW, Toyota, Lexus Honda and Acura vehicles. Why ford has this lockout is unknown as this is a DESIGN FLAW! Other manufacturers do not have this safety issue with their auto transmissions! Curious what you find on your new truck?

Problem number 1. $ 100,000+. Problem number 2. No truck should cost $100,000 ever!!! Problem number 3: it does not have an eletronic butt hole wiper!!

[@LWRC]

To any OBD tuners out there - please develope an override for these digital gauges of bar graphs and replace them with standard orange needle on a white dial background! It would be so much easier to see the speedo and tach!!!

I have tried to order a limited with tremor and no dice on that. So I did this build plat with tremor. I may just bump up to a 350 as it is less than 1k more or so.

[@brian5o]

It’s crazy the small price difference to go from the 150 to 250 to 350. I’d test drive the F-350 just to make sure the more robust suspension isn’t too abusive to your body but if you are okay with the ride, I say go for it! I hope you enjoy your new truck!

[@JoeJoe6678]

I really want to test drive a tremor as I tow a 27foot airstream. I have see some reviews of the 350 tremor and say it rides like a half ton truck.

[@WatchJRGo]

Same, they won’t let you have both 😡😡😡

[@williamegler8771]

I have a co-worker who took out a 401k loan to buy a very similar truck. The bank would not loan him the money because they said the payments were too high for his income! If we take out a loan against our 401k it has to be paid back within 5 years so he is paying back $20,000 per year plus interest and he is moonlighting after work and on weekends as a delivery person for his brother-in-law's furniture store so he has money to make ends meet He puts $20 to $25 a fuel in it every couple of days because he says he can't afford to fill it from empty!

[@moomae1]

And he's getting taxed on the repayments because they come from his net income, but goes back as pre-tax dollars. So he gets to pay taxes twice on the same money. Once on the repayment and again when he distributes in retirement. Congrats!

[@zachlafond2652]

Imagine the insurance cost on a 100K truck.

[@nathangortz3203]

Tax implications be damned, you NEED a 23 / 24 😂😂

[@WatchJRGo]

Yes I do 💯

[@thetimeofday591]

That step is one of the best parts, sir.

[@lenbigdog2476]

john rose u make me lol when u talk about fords

[@Ulford]

Well John Ross, I suppose that Ford now have to give you this truck for free since your review for this truck was outstanding. I really hope they do 🙂

[@jamiecollins228]

No more ford's for me we had a 2023 ford brand new 15 days later the motor sounded like a diesel with only 1,200 miles.

[@dewdew34]

Yet they still have the key less keypad that i love that were on Lincolns in the late 80's 💯

[@HammerWrench]

I loved that feature on my Mark VIIs

[@AtotheK17]

Random question, have you noticed the passenger tires sticking out farther than the driver side? I just got my 350 tremor and noticed it m, they’re about 3/4” farther out I’ve heard it’s a super duty thing

[@The_jason1]

Luv your enthusiasm for this truck, too bad you can't trade in your 22 yet.

[@stupadasso8961]

Lets take bets on how soon the transmission gets replaced....in my fleet i have had 4 F350 transmission replacement under 50k miles....

[@justinphillips6136]

New trucks are plagued with electric problems. Government mandates have pushed the brands to sensors on sensors. Avoid unless you enjoy taking it the mechanic or dealership and tossing money out the window.

[@displayfireworks]

I must be old. back in the day with new vehicles it was all about the engine, horsepower and performance. Now its all about the technology in the vehicle.

[@bengriffin8905]

Ford really flexed with this one 💪

[@briang2034]

Beautiful Truck! cant decide on a 250 or 350? i really dont do any heavy towing. some hauling and snowplowing.

[@nathanael423]

The F250 should do the job just fine. The F350 is more suited for towing and hauling because of suspension changes I believe. But if you don’t do it all the time the F250 is a perfect choice for your needs with the truck.

[@МихаилЩербаков-й9щ]

250

[@braddalager576]

Weren't the Canadian Pontiacs built on Chevrolet chassis? Note US Pontiacs introduced hidden windshield wipers. The Canadian Pontiacs have exposed wipers. The history missed several items.

[@RandySmith-iz1ml]

Why can't the 22' update the firmware to let the dash do the same as the 23'? Seems like not very good planning.

[@loum.4377]

Brand new Ford 2500 with a trailer hitch full of rust all for $100+K.

[@thomasjefferson1081]

It’s nice, but for me AC, heat and a seat are all the luxury I need. For electronics, the 15pro suffices.

[@ewetuber186000]

I have a 2021 platinum super duty. I’ve never accidentally put mine into manual
