2021 F350 Lariat Blackout Ultimate Tremor (Diesel) + Ultimate Trailer Tow
Last weekend I got my first chance to tow with my Tremor. I went to Dumont Sand Dunes in CA. It was my first time going there, and it was a blast. Right before I headed home, I unhitched the trailer and went for a little joy ride. I should have let the air out of the tires, but I didn't think of that until I was bouncing around like a bobble head. Anyway, I was impressed with how well the truck handled the sand. I was in the deep sand/snow mode and in 4H. This was my first time every driving a truck on a sand dune. Other than let the air out of the tires, is there anything else I should have done different? Go slower? Go faster? Try 2H? I really didn't want to get stuck, so I hit it pretty hard. I appreciate everyone's input and opinions. I have a couple of videos but they were too large to attach. Here is a link to Youtube. There is also a special treat at the end where the Raptor is stuck.

I hope you submitted these for Tremor of the month!
I considered it, but I guess the deadline was today at 3pm EST. I already had a snowy one on hand, so I quickly submitted that one before I had a chance to get these ones off my phone. I’ll submit one next month. Which one should I submit?
 
looks like fun never been to those dunes I’ll have to go check those out that poor raptor didn’t seem like it was going into four-wheel-drive that or maybe the paddles were too aggressive
He couldn’t use four-wheel-drive because the previous day he had snapped off the front differential when landing a jump. Seeing him stuck with the paddles made me a little hesitant. I really didn’t want to get stuck or break anything ?

Dude those pic's are frickin' rad. You nailed it!

The one with the sunset in the back ground. I guess I’ll skip March’s contest... I think that one you have is a winner.

Thank you for sharing. Very nice pictures. Send some in for TOTM.
 
I like the black hood insert and tailgate surround (y)
agreed ??

Utah Tremor, did you purchase the [vinyl] hood insert pre-cut and ready to apply, or did you have it done at a shop? Either way, it looks really good! I’m hoping you got it from eBay/Etsy/etc, but something tells me it’s a custom job... ?
I, too, have a white Tremor, and I’m considering the hood insert.
Thanks,
