That's strange, I know they had an issue on some of the intercoolers with condensation, but haven't had any turbo problems. Did he tune the truck?

Well, it's disappointing to say the least. I really wanted to get one, but I can't see paying that when a Raptor starts at $44k. I'd say they priced themself right out of any kind of a market.
And I agree with James. I'd rather have a standard cab truck. Ext cab usually has much better rebates like he said.
I'm not trying to justify anything related to Tremor pricing, but I've never seen a Raptor sell new for anywhere near $44k. No one buys them stripped down and I'm looking at one right now that stickers for $55,195.

Wonder what these tremors weigh in at? I love the concept!
I love reg. cab short beds, from all the manufacturers! Especially semi-stripped down models too. Perfect blank canvas to hot-rod and have some fun with... not just another overloaded luxury couch wannabe.
A lot of these things many of you are griping about can all be accomplished on your own, and probably better than if the factory did it; like lowering it for example.
I don't get the 4.10 with turbo either though...?

I'm thinking about finding a 2010'ish truck and doing an Eco or 5.0 swap... The slightly older 4.6 trucks are cheap.. This grey one was $14,000.. Had about 30k miles... The red one is a parts hauler for Ford Redist.. I want it.. It would be a lightning killer with a 5.0 And bolt ons..

I'm hearing like 4800#'s for a 2wd reg cab 5.0 truck. for the tremor with 4x4 i'd think it'd be closer to 5000 or so. I think they're pretty cool and would be an awesome daily driver, but not for the money they want for it. Maybe in a few years i'll find an old man with a nicely maintained one.

Are the 4.6's sluggish in a standard cab? I've read that the standard cab 3.7s really move, especially tuned.

Wait until you have a kid... big game changer IF that ever happens and for most that is why a single cab truck is somewhat useless to someone like me with 8 kid's

Sucks that you can't order with a "stripe delete" along the sides and the hood, those added touches make the truck look like crap IMO. Keep it simple Ford!!

Need some youtube Tremor vs Lightning footage stat!
Later Lightnings should crush it. Similar HP, more torque, and way lighter.

Intake exhaust and a solid tune and e85 and I bet they're mid 12's. They're cool trucks, I've only seen one of them on the road so far, and I imagine it was a manufacturer tagged truck. Hope I run into one that wants to run next year.
