Guess it’s time for the official intro post. I’ve been lurking around taking in all this information. I can say y’all have been great!

Pulled the trigger on my first Super Duty.

2025 Avalanche 6.7L H/O Lariat Ultimate FX4.

While it’s not the Tremor I wanted, it’s EVERYTHING else and then some at a price that was right and a helluva upgrade from the 2017 F150.

Hope y’all will have me. I’m new to HD trucks and diesel ownership but I’m absolutely in love with it so far. I’m open to any recommendations on mods! I wanted that tremor stance so I guess I’ll just have to make it myself!

Welcome to the forum! You made the right choice. Tremors are for MOTMs.

I think so.
An opportunity came about for the 6.7L and Avalanche Grey and I couldn’t stand it. It’s been my favorite color.
 
Welcome to the forum! First off, I have to point out the elephant in the room: buying a beautiful new Super Duty from a Nissan dealership? I hope you made them scrub the Altima stench off the keys before handing them over. 🤪

We won’t hold that FX4 badge against you... much. It’s definitely a massive step up from the half-ton life, even if you did settle for the oil-burner instead of the raw, unadulterated glory of a 7.3L Godzilla gas engine. But hey, that 6.7 H/O will do just fine for hauling groceries and getting you to the mall in record time. Just remember, the DEF goes in the blue cap—don't learn that the hard way!

As for mods and getting that "Tremor stance" you wanted, you're going to need a lot more than factory parts. But first: get yourself a Banks Pedal Monster. You'll thank me later. Secondly, get the S&B 60 gallon fuel tank. You'll thank me again 😁.

Hide your wallet now, because this place is going to help you spend every spare dime you have on aftermarket parts. Glad to have you here and congratulations on your new truck!
 
I too didn’t get the tremor I wanted, but 35’s fit on all of them LOL! Congrats. Beautiful truck.

Well it was a smokin deal so I gotta give it up to the Nissan place for that!

I definitely need to hide the wallet. I’m already looking at things. Gotta put those upfitter switches to use!
 
Welcome aboard and congrats on a beautiful truck. Pay no attention to the 7.3 guys. They are like crossfitters. How do you know they CrossFit? Because they never stfu about CrossFit. It’s just overcompensation because they know they have to practically redline their engine to make 1/3rd the torque yours makes just above idle. Just treat them accordingly.

I tried so hard to make myself a 7.3L guy.

The H/O dropped in my lap and I knew what I had to do. That low end torque (for a planned 5’er) is 🤌🤌🤌 and that sound!

I’m loving the shit out of it.

I think the diesel bros who "roll coal" are a heck of a lot worse.

But I have to sadly agree with the needing to redline to make 1/3 the torque. It made me question many of my life's choices when I struggled to keep up with a Tremor with the standard output 6.7l

^ ^ ^ says "Super Duty Forum" rightchair! 🏁

And +/-$1500 for a Borla S-Type complete 3.5" stainless cat-back and an hour in the driveway one can have just over 500 lb/ft of simple, honest torque. Of course if you tow HEAVY, then the Powerstroke is the proper choice.

Either way these are some of the best trucks ever. You can't keep me out of mine! 'cept when I'm runnin' my yap in here. Welcome aboard.

First modifcation suggestion: trim that beard and slap on a Tremor air dam (lower bumper valance). Cheers!
