📷 TOTM TellurideTremor 🏆 2025 Ford Tremor of the Year! 🏆

As we close out another great year, we did it the best way possible, by celebrating the top photos from the Ford Tremor Forum in our Tremor of the Year showdown!

I’m excited to announce that the winner of the FordTremor.com 2025 Tremor of the Year contest is TellurideTremor, with an incredible shot of his Tremor flexing its way up the trail.

Congrats to @devildog on a great 2nd place finish, and to @gunzfcc for locking in 3rd place to round out the podium.

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped showcase just how awesome this community truly is, the entries this year were outstanding.

Looking ahead, the first Tremor of the Month contest for 2026 launches the first week of January, and we’ll be hunting for cold, icy, snow-covered Tremors.

Happy New Year to the entire Tremor community!

Ladies and gentlemen, family, friends, and people who have spent the last year wondering why this forum looks like a brochure for a mud-wrestling convention—we are here to celebrate our winner...

Finally, the 2025 Tremor of the Year contest has ended, and @TellurideTremor has officially secured the title (again). Honestly, I’m not sure what’s more impressive: the truck itself, or the fact that he somehow managed to find a way to make "owning a vehicle" a full-time personality trait.

We all saw the photos. We saw the high-angle shots, the low-angle shots, and the shots where he was clearly lying face-down in a puddle just to get that "aggressive stance" lighting.

I’ve never seen someone take so many photos of a truck in "extreme conditions" that were actually just the unpaved overflow parking lot at a Cracker Barrel. Telluride, we know you weren't "conquering the wilderness" in that photo; you were thirty feet from a Starbucks, trying to find the perfect filter to make a gravel driveway look like the Rubicon Trail.

I saw one photo where he was standing on the hood, looking off into the distance like a pioneer discovering a new continent. In reality, he was just looking for his sunglasses, which were on top of his head the whole time.

But in all seriousness, your dedication to the lifestyle is unmatched. Most people buy a truck to haul lumber; you bought a truck to haul 40 gigabytes of self-portraits and enough specialized wax to keep that "rugged" finish looking like a pageant queen.

My fellow Tremorites, raise your glasses to @TellurideTremor. May your trails be dusty, your air compressor be unnecessary, and may you eventually take a photo where the truck is actually moving.

Congratulations my friend!

This bullshit took me an hour to write so you better enjoy it.

Actually, how long until we can do a TotD?

I was pretty sure it was 2020, but wasn’t certain if the TotM//Y had started right away or not.

And you never know where fake internet//digital points will come in handy. Just look at crypto now.

Thanks for the kind words and congratulations...Wow. I was surprised when I won in March as this pic was actually a screen grab from a video I posted of the big rig plowing through a jeep trail at Merus Adventure Park in Palo Duro Canyon (TX). But March had a theme (I like the themes) about trails I believe so the pic worked!

It wasn’t the typical “posed” pic with a beautiful landscape background. Trust me I have plenty of them as well!

In the end I guess we all love to see these awesome rigs performing as intended. They are incredibly capable in lots of scenarios. Off road and on!

Honored to be a 3 Time ToTM and now 2 time ToTY! I still don't know if this a photo contest or more. I think everyone makes it what they want. And I love that!

@Optimus🤖 you should see the file of epic pics from our CDT trip I’ve been saving for 2026 entries.

I vote for more "themes" in 2026

I allegedly live about 20 minutes from @TellurideTremor , but I think he only has a Texas address for tax purposes. He can't really claim residency here as he's never in the state. Maybe he's a spy? Lots of trips over seas for "meetings". Never met another person who works from so many remote places while holding down what is typically an office job. Something doesn't quite add up, but I'm too afraid to ask questions that might get me on some list.

you are already on the list....

You weren't on the radar until you had a high profile house guest that is a high value target (he's the Queen of Hearts in the Most Wanted deck of cards) and person of interest from Nevada

See, that puts me in a difficult position. You know that people in Vegas have ways of making people disappear in the desert. I've seen Hangover and it seems pretty common. So when someone from a particular family wants to stay at your home, you're wise to roll out the red carpet.
