Things that annoy you about your Tremor, but are how Ford intended it to be....

I was surprised to get two sets of floor mats... All weather and carpet. Of and the vehicle vault is..... interesting. Came with the truck and I am currently not a fan. You get this nice big console, then can't put hardly anything in it because the opening is so small. Forget putting a file in it or the normal truck stuff (light, knives, etc)
 
Android auto is glitchy as hell, backup camera is glitchy, rides like shit, steering is garbage, duratracs are awful, truck leans, rear axle isn't centered, The only thing I like is the motor and transmission. 6.7 is an absolute beast.
 
the lack of passenger side hooks rates a 1 on the dislike scale. biggest gripe at this point is (really nitpicking here) the paint. why must ford insist on metallic/pearlescent black?

otherwise, can it have a toilet, and a kitchen? I want to live in mine.
 
The most annoying thing to me is sync denial. If the damn truck is moving it won't let me move around the menu to select another music album by another artist. I've been using USB thumb drives in vehicle for damn near a decade as I don't care for radio or xm or cds. I couldn't figure out or my wife how to go back and search for a different album while we were on the highway. I realized it when we were stopped and it finally let me do a new search. Another annoying part about this is that it makes me sift through the entire list of artists instead of leaving off where I was at. It's incredibly cumbersome vs my 2016 Focus ST which I guess has an older version of Sync. That is much easier to move about in even if it is older. Anyway know a way around this or does everyone use apple carplay and xm radio?
 
I absolutely hate the Sirius XM alert sound and volume lever. Sadly, there's no way to turn down the alert volume or change the sound

Vinyl floors trucks have passenger side hooks

Anything I have to pay for as far as a subscription, I'm not interested in. Sirius is still sending me soliciting mail despite me not having that vehicle for years.
 
I know they are all little things.... not making the choice between a Tremor and a Ram 2500 and easier.

Have you driven both the ram and Superduty back to back? The ram is slow as hell comparatively and has the old heavy diesel truck feel. Once the turbo spools it does pull like a freight train. But, the ram feels like driving our 2012 work dually service bed. I really wanted to like the ram.. The huge screen is awesome, but the seats suck, radio sucks and the cab is tiny. (Limited 2500 vs Platinum Tremor)
 
.......I am not "whine-ing" about the best truck on the planet......when the wench bitches about the ride I stop and make her walk behind.......
 
One- the microphone for the phone is set way too low, and it is hard for people to hear me talk. My friend has the same problem in his.
Two- the center console is 20m yrs behind the times, it sucks. My iphone xr barely fits the charging pad which is tucked at an angle under the dash
three- the tires are tucked way under the wheel wells. Unstable driving curves.
 
I got a few to add since ive had a few days to spend driving my truck.
- No front parking sensors (my ram had 360 cameras and front parking sensors)
- Wish you had access to all camera modes, no matter if in reverse/park etc.
- Better quality cameras - hate to compare again but my ram had HD cameras and it was a huge help. These are barely CIF resolution.
- Duratrash tires.
 
The chain eyes on the receiver are too small to hook a standard safety chain to.


Noticed that this weekend when attaching my boat. Had to buy some HD Shackles from 4wheel parts last minute.

BMW tried that with epic fail in automatic transmissions. Too much heat breakdown over time.

Lifetime fill is bad recipe for lifetime fail. I will be changing mine.
Lots of companies try and still do this. Toyota as well as Volvo I believe. It isn't the best idea. It may be because they consider the "lifetime" of the vehicle to be 10 years or less with 12000 miles per year driven. Obviously most consumers aren't thinking this. Agree, I'll be changing mine also.
 
I friggen hate hate hate the double honk when you close the door with the keys in while running! 5:45am gotta run back into the house cause you forgot something and honk honk!
