New from South Lake Tahoe

[Optimus]

Hey neighbor, welcome!

Hello fellow Nevadan!

 

[Oneand0]

That’s crazy @Oneand0! Had to chime in since I’m sitting in Tahoe reading your post! Haha

I too have been looking for an F250 Tremor for a couple years now. I get the Xplan pricing from working at AT&T, but most dealers would not sell xplan pricing during the pandemic years (unless you build/order/wait). So I recently found five in the Bay Area that mostly met my wish list, and Manteca Ford had two almost identical builds that were closest of all.

My family had this trip planned to South Lake Tahoe this week… So yesterday, I drove my 2013 FX4 F150 up from San Jose, traded her in for this Lariat Tremor, and two hours later I moved all our luggage/bikes/fishing poles/etc and drove the rest of the way to Tahoe IN STYLE!!!! Haha

I too might get a camper for my Hunting and Fishing camps trips, but the wife “hates how they look” sooooooo yeah…. We’ll see who wins that battle. lol

Anyways, congrats on the truck man!

Thank you. Congratulations on yours too. Wow! Nice Tremor and I bet you couldn't wipe the smile off your face the whole way to Tahoe! If I see you driving around I will give a double honk. I stayed in Pollock Pines yesterday and finally back home just now. I still can't believe I got a new one at an affordable price. Tempted to take it along highway 88 and hit some trails around Hope Valley tomorrow, but afraid because I need to break in the engine. Have a great weekend!

Welcome. Now that you saved $5K, what will your upgrade list look like?

Great question!
All weather floor type mats
Line X spray in bed liner
Maybe Diamondback bed cover
I need some type of aftermarket cam or something for the front, I feel like it's huge beast compared to F-150 and afraid to bump into something. LOL

Welcome and congratulations! We were married at Harvey's in 2001. Left California for Missouri in 2021 and haven't looked back. I too have a silver Tremor, you'll love it it. Seems like you got a great deal. Who did you buy it from and how did they treat you?

I thought I had a huge garage! That’s AMAZING.

That isn’t a garage….its a toy box for big boys

 

[TRAMPER]

It’s fucking awesome

Until they start to understand our humor that is…

Can anyone really say they understand it?

Thank you! I hope to have a garage half that size someday, but it will probably be in a couple of years when I pull the plug and move to another state, probably Idaho, or South Utah.

I bought it from Woodland Ford, originally only $2k off sticker. Then the night before I bought it, I found another XLT Tremor for 4k off sticker at Dupratt Ford in Auburn. Before I could go see Dupratt’s Tremor, Woodland called me up and I told them about the 4k off one at Dupratt. They offered me 5k off not to go there and I accepted. Woodland Ford treated me pretty good.

The 4K off sticker is still for sale at Dupratt. I bet they would take another 1k off, because they tried to do that, as I was driving home in my new Tremor

Nice man! Yeah our Tremors are meant for this Terrain and altitude! I was tempted to do what you did and pay way less for the truck and then upgrade/customize the shit out of her, but some of the bells and whistles were too cool to pass up. Still not sure about the heads up display though… I feel like my truck is constantly telling me to slow the F down! lol

But the X-plan saved me about $6K below MSRP… I didn’t tell the dealer that I had it in my back pocket, and they surprisingly proactively offered me their “invoice price” which was only $80 more than X-plan. But we still went X-Plan because I guess ford gives the dealer a backend kickback so they make a bit more on the deal. And I also learned I get a discount on the warranty… $2500 for 7Y/100K bumper to bumper was a no-brainer on a $95K truck!

Anyways… Just hoping the smoke from the Crozier and Park fires stay out of the lake basin this week… It’s floated in and out a couple times so far, but not too bad…. I’ll be around the Pioneer Trail and fishing the West Carson so I’ll keep my eyes and ears peeled for a double-honk!!!

Thank you. It was the first thing I built after I left California with the proceeds from selling our California properties. I built it myself and it was a lot of work, which makes it even more satisfying. I wasn't trying to show off but it was the only picture I had of my truck that was close to the same angle as the one you posted.

Nice rig! Love the Tahoe area. 58 ain’t bad for a brand new Tremor. As my ol man always said…..”drive it till the wheels fall off!”
