Upgrading to a new Tremor

[pkrexer]

So I originally had no intention of moving out of my current 20' 7.3 Tremor, but it all started when I received a $2500 PCO from Ford. Curiosity got the best of me and I sent an email off to salesman I bought my first tremor from, inquiring about trade-in value. He essentially came back with slightly more money than I had paid for it.

Why the hell not, lets upgrade I skimped on my first tremor (essentially a bare-bones lariat ) and sorta regretted it, so this seemed like a perfect opportunity.

Build Run Down:

• 22' F250 Lariat
• Carbonized Grey
• 6.7L Power Stroke
• High Capacity Tow Package
• Black Appearance Package
• 360 Camera System
• Lariat Ultimate
• Rapid Heat Supplemental Heater
• Heated Steering Wheel
• Upfitter Switches
• Garage Door Opener
• Clearance Lights

Let the wait game begin! Hopefully I'll have it by spring? Who knows! At least I have my current tremor to tide me over until the new one gets here!

Crazy times we live in... Never thought I'd see the day when used cars actually went up in value.

Congrats on the upcoming upgrade. Personally, I'd be nervous about banking on the trade-in being worth the same in the spring unless you have a contract with the dealer. If it was me, and I didn't absolutely <need> the current truck...I'd just sell it outright to lock in the trade value. If/when the chip issue gets solved...there's going to be a bunch of vehicles hitting the market and the trade-in values are going to drop like a rock. And honestly, it's not a question of if....only when. Good luck!!

I get it, but I'm also not obligated to buy it. So if the trade in value tanks, I'll just keep my current truck.

Congrats on the upgrade - that's my (21) build but I have sunroof.....you will enjoy the extra stuff I am sure.

Congrats on the new order. Hope the whole process works out for you but if not like you said, just keep your current ride.

Sounds like a good plan!

What were your reasons for going with a diesel on the new truck?

I've always wanted to try a diesel and seemed like a good opportunity for it. We'll see if I regret it, but I'm looking forward to the torque and mpg.

The 7.3 is definitely a nice engine though and wouldn't hesitate getting another at some point.
