It is an old adagechoose brains or brawn, you cant have both. Yet Built Ford Tough trucks have combined them for decades. The 2022 Ford F-150 pickup takes the partnership even further. Visionary technology and massive capability work in unison to make life easier and to outsmart difficult challenges. This isnt brains vs. brawn. No, this is brains and brawn a unique combination of features and capabilities that can help you be more productive whether you are on the clock or off. Michael Simari, with CARandDRIVER wroteNot content with just one dedicated off-road F-150 model, Ford has introduced the F-150 Tremor, which bundles a host of Raptor-inspired design cues with some unique trail-ready tech. With a decent starting price, the Tremor is accessible to a broader range of buyers, and it doesnt require as many compromises as the more performance-focused Raptor. A unique styling kit helps the F-150 Tremor look the part too. While it borrows some themes from the Raptorthe vented hood, powder-coated running boards, and a silver bumper bash plate, for exampleit also sports orange trim across the exterior and interior to match the Ranger and Expedition Timberline models. The twin-turbo V-6 pulls strong throughout the rev range and helped the Tremor snap off a 5.3-second run to 60 mph at our test track, only 0.1 second behind the 385-pound heavier Raptors time. The Tremor also made it through the quarter mile in 13.9 seconds at 100 mph, 2 mph faster than the Raptor. All Tremor models come with a locking rear differential and 33-inch General Grabber A-TX off-road tires on 18-inch aluminum wheels. This Tremor also features Fords Blue Cruise system, the B and O Sound System, and the 402A Equipment Group which picks up the tailgate step, the 36-gal, remote start, the 360 degree camera, a power sliding rear window and wireless charging pad.
