Everytime I tow with this truck I love it even more!
Just got back from Moab, we go every spring break, it's about 475 miles from Wyoming and a lot of mountains. Averaged 9mpg and with the mountains we go through I think that's awesome.
Was also blown away by how many other tremors we saw there. I didn't feel so special lol

if it werent for the fact that i'm month 6 of the wait i feel special for ya.......sorry...i just cant do it
 
You are proof positive that the Tremor is a good tow vehicle. So many have complained about multiple issues while towing and it baffles me. I’ve had zero issues towing and actually enjoy towing with my Tremor more than any other truck I’ve ever owned. Congratulations!

I really feel for you guys waiting. I'd be going crazy. I didn't order mine but kinda did.
Found it on ford's website and called the dealership and put a deposit. It hadn't even shipped yet. But mine only took 2 weeks.

I've been seeing this as well.
But I also recognize that people nowadays are just complaining just to hear themselves talk, doesn't even have to be anything serious. People just bitch!

I towed with a tuned and deleted 6.4 before this and thought it was great! Lol, yeah, boy was I in for a surprise the first time I hooked this beast up!
 
I agree love the towing.

Lots of sad stories about the orders, I could sell mine and make $$ but not worth the 27 week wait for the next one.

Camping season starts real soon so does boating season. :cool::cool::cool:
 
My 2020 with the 7.3L does ok pulling our 5th wheel, but really looking forward to getting the 2022 with the 6.7L. Seeing this discussion just confirms, I made the right decision stepping up to a diesel. Hopefully we get the new truck before the end of camping season this fall.
 
(y) I cant wait to get back to Moab. Did you take the Tremor to Shaffer Trail???

The Tremor is a good tow rig as long as you're not expecting dually performance out of it. Towing weight and towing a giant (bumper pull) travel trailer are two totally different things. I've never towed a 5th wheel RV so I have no input on that front.

No I didn't. I should have but me being me the Tremor stayed at camp and we wheel with the RZR.
Duelly is not performance it's stability, that's it!

Camping doesn't usually start until around memorial weekend here and you're still pushing it. Still can't make it to the mountains then, still to much snow.
I'm actually going to have to re winterize today because of storm coming next week.

Our season normally starts first weekend of May, but it is one week early this year. My 5er is home but is has been so cold I may not have enough time to get it out a prepared for the season before our camp site is open. Plus the way I have it tucked in for winter I need to drive it on my lawn and its still wet and soggy.
Its nice to get it up there but the first few weekends are always very cold and rainy so I guess its no biggie

Sucks you have to re winterize but its pretty easy on most units,
 
I feel that mine tows just as good or better than the 2018 F-250 FX4 that I had. I think the bump in power and the ten speed really help it out.
 
Oakvad I feel the same as you do. This truck is made for towing. This pic is at rest area during spring break trip.

I haven't broken 10K towing yet but what I have towed, about 8K, has been great! The 7.3 is WAY more than enough in these trucks.

I know people have talked about stability issues but I don't see what they're saying. Again, under 10K. I do have independently controlled air bags to help with balance but I haven't needed to inflate them yet.
