Spent much of the weekend paddleboarding. Two ratchet straps: one around the board (visible here) and hooked just beside the tailgate, the other looped through the central handle on the top side of the board and attached up behind the cab. Didn't move an inch.
1) needed more practicality than my previous vehicle, which included the ground clearance & off-road capability
2) looked at a used Colorado the day before, but liked how the Mav rode more smoothly given its unibody design
3) figured between my trade-in value and the cost of the new Tremor (less...
Glad to hear it, and if you opt to go with this exact design I placed the order details in the original post. The company also sends a draft of what you've ordered to confirm that it's what you're looking for. Since I had the center cutout, this is what the mockup looked like for me. Threw me...
I'd say pull the trigger, I am absolutely thrilled with mine. The liquid copper is perhaps a shade darker than the tremor orange, that's why I made sure to get the rear wheel in the second image as well so yall could see for yourselves. I actually felt like the OEM sticker was perhaps a shade...
The "3M 1080 Liquid Copper Metallic Gloss G344" is close to the Tremor orange but it's not an exact match; the actual Tremor orange is likely a proprietary color. Same probably goes for the "Vvivid Ultra-Gloss Candy Charcoal Grey Metallic" but it's harder to tell with the grey. Here's one of...
I'm not sure if they have a clear vinyl option, actually, but the center vinyl has been cut out so it's exposed paint in this case. I wonder if clear vinyl might yellow over time?
@OleFordGuy on one hand I feel like it should have come this way from the factory, but on the other hand I'm happy to have added a detail that'll make my truck stand out a bit!
I was never a fan of just how much the Tremor stickers stuck out on the bed so after @VinylImagination's post I looked into what they had.
I've got a Shadow Black truck with the Tremor appearance package meaning I've also got a Carbonized Grey roof and mirror caps so, except for the giant...
@CYCLIST in addition to @MrMoustache's question above about the screw/bolt you used, I'd be curious about the dimensions of the wood you used, particularly the depth of the lower block that goes into the drain hole. I love this idea, but would like to have the ability to fit two bikes facing in...
I'm in northern new england (NH) and use tow/haul a good bit to help control descents. I've found that if I've got cruise set, the system will allow 5mph over the set speed before more aggresively shifting down and using the RPMs to hold at 5 over. My understanding is that turbos like revving...
That does look good. I will say that I've got the Tremor Appearance Package and I appreciate how the grey on the wheels ties in the grey on the mirror caps and on the roof; I think it's a nicely coordinated detail as the eyes scan from top to bottom of the truck.
For an all-black Tremor the...
Ollie. Looked like an Ollie to me, plus when I get excited to go for a ride I shout OLLIE! which sounds to the ear like the French "ALLEZ!" or "let's go!" I got him so he and I could adventure together.
This may be completely off-base, but my understanding is that the Tremor's rear diff is from the Focus RS, and I found this on a Focus RS forum. Would need to consult with an actual tech to confirm/deny:
"From Ford:
The rear drive unit [FocusRS] stores fluid in three separate chambers.
