Same here, ordered one every year. I told my wife before the '25's came out the only thing that would get me to move was a hybrid AWD and what does Ford go and do. I'm really happy with my Tremor and will be sad to see it go.
I loved my Tremor and I am worried the AWD Hybrid Lariat won’t ride quite as nice as the Tremor did but I will eventually replace the 19” wheels with some 17” lightweight wheels and some some 235 or 245 AT and that should get me back closer to Tremor ride quality.

I really wish Ford would make the upgraded RDU and PTU standard across the board but I also think their standard AWD system is sufficient.

The Tremor for me was limited by the lack of low gearing and true fascia and underbody protection. Felt compromised.

AWD Hybrid 4K tow it is!!!

I've also thought of replacing the wheels with 17 inchers, but everyone keeps assuring me that the 19's will ride just fine. If nothing else, there are a lot more tire options for the 17's.

I’m not sure if it will be possible or not but my goal is to match or reduce the weight of the OEM wheel/tire combo while adding an AT tire and bumping up to 235.

Reasons being that I don’t want to stress the CV axles even the new beefier ones. And then I got rid of the Tremor for efficiency and longevity concerns so it wouldn’t make much sense to torpedo the Hybrids efficiency by slapping some weighty 245s on there with a heavy wheel.

I ordered a new one every year. This will be my last for a while, If they didn't come out with an AWD hybrid with 4k, I would have just kept the 2024.
Yeah I would love the hybrid awd too. Wish they has that in 22.

I feel the same, I'm also worried that the AWD hybrid Lariat won't ride as nice as my Lariat Tremor. I'm thinking about going the same route as you, replacing the 19" wheels with 17'' and getting a set of Falken Wildpeaks.
Maybe I'll wait for you to take one for the team and see how well they work. 😁
If you see me a year from now waiting for my '26 Tremor you'll know I regretted it. 😂

So we have a 2015 Flex. It has the optional 19" wheel package and it rides just fine.

255/55-19 is the tire size and the Maverick Lariat is 225/55-19. A little lower tire height, but I think it will ride just fine.

I guess we will eventually find out, hope you are right though I still might go with the 17" wheels and Falken Wildpeaks.

I’m really starting to regret my decision on the bap. I have an eruption green lariat and for some reason I added that package and I don’t like the hood stripes and tbh the front grill looks better on the non bap. Sigh…. Might just order another one if I hate it.

The hood stripes should be pretty easy to pull off and you can always get a different grille.

Personally the only good part of that package is the black rims. Can't stand the stripes and black roof.

That's what stopped me from buying a Maverick in 2023. I actually went online to place an order, but to my frustration, I had to choose between the two. So instead, I placed an order for a Tacoma (which I am glad I didn't buy). As soon as I learned that the 2025 year model had both, I placed an order.

I'll add my name to the list of people who don't like the stripes and hood. I also wonder if, in the South Carolina summers, if the black roof and black seats wouldn't just be even hotter. But then I wasn't willing to consider spending a few hundred for Ruby Red, so I was never going to be a candidate for spending over a grand for the BAP. About the only thing I've considered paying for that was purely aesthetic is tailgate lettering. Everything else either makes the truck more functional/capable in some way (EX: 4K tow) or helps protect it (EX back seat pet cover or mud flaps).

Same here, saw the color on a F-150 and a Mach E and really liked it. I can see moving from Cactus Gray because it was the first color Space White reminded of.
I was dead set on ordering CG for my 2025 so when they didn’t bring it back, Space White was the only thing that caught my eye as the next best option. Looks great on the vehicles I see around town, but still wish I could have chosen CG. Lunar Rock has long been my favorite color on a vehicle and CG is as close as we can get without switching brands.

since I was fortunate enough to get Cactus Gray, I feel ya. I am not sure why Ford replaced it with Space White, to be honest.

Avalanche Gray was a past color and it is very near Cactus, and it looks like Space White is several shades lighter.
