It's Official: My Ford F-150 FX4 SUCKS Off-Road Compared To The Brand New Tremor! 

Andre is the gift that keeps giving. He's come a long way since checking the brake Temps in Russian. Its always a nail bitter when Andre us behind the wheel. But I love his balls and overall joy of being in the car industry.

@@jaimealvarez4722 I love his balls too!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@jaimealvarez4722 a gift that keeps on giving, are you trying to say he is herpes? I'm not going to touch the loving his balls...😏

I personally think he’s about the worst off-road. He just doesn’t know what lines to take. I still love his attitude and enjoy watching him.

It's a battle scar. It's good that it won't rust.

@@TFLoffroad looks like it did not brake the paint, You might be able to wet sanded and buff it and make it look like it never happen 👍🙂

You should see my 2017....its got a billion scratches and I love it. Not a hint of rust.

Nathan and Tommy are my favorites.

I'll never forgive him for defending CVTs.

Love tfl off road videos

@@ericl1166 Americans don't buy manuals so you get CVTs. In my country the Toyota Yaris and Corolla are only available with a manual transmission or as a hybrid.

Sweet very sweet

Even tho I spotted some rust :(

@@mr.nickivey537 ha! Its a ford 🤪🤷🏼‍♂️. Still, i ordered one and will just coat it i guess 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️

I like it because its plenty off road capable for me, but it can also tow up to 14k lbs under with 1800lbs of payload for specific configuration.I think the normal tow capacity with full options is 12lbs with 1600lbs of payload, but that still way more than the Raptor.

@Chano Leyva he did say old beat up 4x4.

Exactly right!! I don't know where common sense has gone but it's definitely less evident these days.

Not the paint you’re normally worried about, it’s slamming into it and denting it

@@10thclimbtovictorystevens65 yea, this trick wasn’t saving my GX when I did this over the summer 😅

I would rather stick with duct tape or other "heavy duty" plastic foils. They should fare quite well to protect the paint from scratching.

If you worry about scratches, don't offroad

@@bendino9016 Exactly. Or get some "Rhino Hide".

Just the Tremor, ZR2, and the new TRD pro. Hopefully RAM will make a competitor with the 392.

@@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080 Wat. That list first of all is talking full sized. Secondly its a very appropriate list. Thirdly, Ram Rebel was doing Tremor before the Tremor was a pipe dream. You should thank RAM for driving competition (2000's Ranger Tremor was a joke). Edit: Clarified 2000's Ranger, not current model.

@@dfdorsey85 Rebel is an FX-4 competitor and not a very good one at that. Just look at the sales numbers. FX-4 came out in 2002, and it took Dodge/Ram 14 years to make a competitor with a horrible approach angle. The TREMOR is a new level. These are specialty trucks with BIG POWER, 2 Lockers, and off road programming. It's competitors are the 2022 Chevy ZR2, and possibly the 2022 Toyota TRD-Pro which in Toyota fashion is replacing the front locker with brake force traction control. When RAM builds a Rebel with the 392, their good rear axle, and a front locker (if the front end is strong enough to handle one), that would compete with the TREMOR. Keep in mind RAM, Jeep, and Toyota are being sued by Land Rover for patent infringement over the use of their Hill Decent Control, brake Traction Control, and Terrain Modes. Ford is not being sued because they co-own the patents are are in no fear of losing the technology moving forward.

​@@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080 The FX4, Z71, and Ram 4x4 Off-Road (Warlock) are in the same class. The Rebel, Trailboss, Tremor, Pro4x, and TRD PRO are in the same class. That is the competition price points for these builds. Tremor is nothing special. It's a Raptor light, with less credentials, and an almost same sticker price. Same as Rebel vs TRX. They have locker(s). They have off-road electronics. They have lifts. They have Skids. They are marketed as Off-Roaders. The ZR2 competes with Gladiator Rubicon and maybe Ranger Tremor. ZR2 = Jeep Gladiator. A Lot of a size difference between it and Tremor. (Personally I'd take a ZR2 for serious off roading vs Tremor for its smaller size/footprint). Your comment of Tremor being a new level really makes you sound biased towards Ford. That's fine, everyone has their favorites. I see nothing special over what Andre could do for cheaper with his rig and a few $$$ in upgrades.

Then a midsize shootout...

That's exactly what I did.

@@courtmcnab5913 on my 2014 F150 Ecoboost I did a 6.5 inch Mcgaughy lift, a Banks ram air cold air intake, a 5 star tune, 35 inch KO2's and a Pypes exhaust and a Raptor grill and fender flares. I love this truck and it's a blast to drive

@@truckertoddllc how is the 5* tune, did you get the preloaded or the custom one? I am thinking of tunning my truck. Any recommendations?

@@magician4444able I love it. I did the custom tunes. I did a couple of e performance tunes at different octane levels, a couple of towing tunes at different octane levels and an 89 octane eco tune.

@@truckertoddllc thanks 🙏 man

That front Torsten diff is really helpful

Real AT tires would probably have made a huge difference.

$6500 later

2 inches lift and 33's

@@supernova8715 33x12.50r20 mud tires big diferent

The F-150 Tremor has a much better approach angle, to the tune of nearly 8 degrees, a better breakover angle to the tune of about 2 degrees, while the Ram Rebel has a slightly better departure angle to the tune of about one-half of a degree. Don't really see it being much of a match with the F-150 Tremor's approach being almost 28 degrees while the Ram Rebel's is 19 degrees flat.

Rebel is an FX-4 competitor. NOT a Tremor competitor.

@@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080 hopefully, the Rebels are crazy expensive right now, hopefully the tremor drops the price on the rebels. Rebel here I come.

Trail boss comparison would be interesting as well.

@@milehighmaniac100 i bet the trail boss hangs with tremor no problem

Nah he just needs someone to sponsor his rig so he can really get it going

I have been waiting for some prices! Trying to decide if it's worth it. I've owned a couple of new F150s now, and my go-to has always been the STX 4x4 (sub-40k for crewcab both times), then straight to tire shop for $800 2" lift front and rear, $1200 for new tires, with some wheel spacers to help with the stance. After removing the front air valance, I'm all in for around $40k TOTAL for a brand new F150 that looks almost exactly like the Tremor (and I got to pick my own tires). Just not sure that extra $20k is worth the seat stitching and Torsen axle....does look good for a factory rig for sure, but is it the honest consensus that the Tremor is far more capable in average offroad situations than your standard 4x4 with the above mentioned mods? (I also have the electronic rear locker which was pennies on the option sheet, so a no-brainer). I was hoping the Tremor upcharge would be more in the 1 thousands, not tens of thousands. A little disappointed....

@@peruser155 In your case it definitely doesn't sound worth it. I was looking for a XLT with 302a at the time. It you add the 3.5 and similar options it's about $3K more for the Tremor. I wasn't planning on spending that much and originally was looking at a Ranger Tremor. I guess you can say I'm at a point in my life where I needed to treat myself.. Good luck!

@@edm3184 Yes I agree, you are getting much more than just the Tremor content with the higher, upscale trims. And the upgraded motor (mine have always been the 2.7 which have been awesome, but I have heard great things about the bigger version). My comment mostly referred to someone who wants the "base" trim and then wants to simply add Tremor content from Ford instead of spending all day at the tire shop, and was hoping for comparable costs, to my dismay. Your Tremor sounds awesome...hope I can get the higher trims someday (I want that full panel sunroof!) Congrats on your purchase and you are so right about reward; life is short.

Sorry, All V6s sound like shit

Put a V8 in it!

Doesn't have to sound good to be a bad ass😎 3.5 FTW!!

@@deansapp4635 I like a decent V6 but nothing like a V8.

I wonder if they made a updated v8 tho like much fuel efficient and more power probably a 4.5L v8 with one turbo

Hes drunk

@FABULOUS OFF ROAD DESIGNS - You are absolutely correct.

I don’t think they will it no offence doesnt look to good when a truck isn’t a full size

@@Rohit0Singh 😂a regular cab shortbed is a full-size truck, as the f150 in all configurations is!

I'm sure they'll make this for the literally 100 people that want one and the 40 that have the money lol

@@KIDRR nailed it.

A base model FX4 has all the off road goodies as a Platinum FX4. Literally would’ve made zero difference if it had more options.

Pretty sure he’s referring to the off road options, my dude.

@@StephenRichardsX read comment again… so am I, I literally said that. what off road options does a Platimum FX4 have that Andres FX4 doesnt?

@@jabroni6199 more automated stuff like in the tremor. At least that’s what I think.

@@captaintf7759 that’s a negative. There’s no extra off road related automation.

Absolutely!

He could easily be at Tremor level for less than $2000. Tires, 2" lift front and rear, and even have some left over for moderate wheel spacers for that "look." Only thing really missing would be the front locker, and I didn't see any content in this video that would warrant that, compared to the electronic rear locker option available on ALL F150 trims. $2k Andre! Would be money well spent. It's exactly the first thing I do with my base crewcabs.

pahaha tell that to Andre, he seems way more nervous with adrenaline that his personal truck will be all f'up.

Lmao did he really just say that? 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

@@fernandobriseno8164 😂🤣

Edit: upon further research, RC doesn't make good quality products anymore. But my point still stands.

The vodka helps too

How often do you find yourself adding oil ?

The AEV prospector would like a word with you

Sure thing

yep. narrower and very capable

Not really. It doesn't cost any less to fix it because it isn't top of the line.

Um same sheet medal on top model lmao

@@Norwisco I think they meant it as hurting more emotionally (given how much the vehicle costs in total). Though Anti-matter Blue may also be more expensive (along with some top trim paints) to repaint panels and such, so there is that possibility to have a higher cost associated with scratches..

Why does top-of-the-line matter when you're talking body damage? Not like they got a Cadillac Pearl Paint that requires whole vehicle repaint to match. I feel bad regardless if its a work truck vs top-of-the-line. Damage is damage regardless how much you spent on the vehicle. What and where he damaged literally makes no difference on the price of the vehicle.

I didn't mean expense wise it's obviously the same body pannels this particular model is meant to be used and is going to aquire dents and dings as apposed to a limited or king ranch package it would hurt the owner a lot more personally had it been a higher trim level this is a work truck not a show truck see what I'm saying

Bring vodka... Andre does
