Just saw this released and was thinking it might be the closest trim/package to the NA Tremor???

It’s close to what the Tremor is but I don’t see Ford doing the Wildtrax in NA. The Tremor package is really prevalent across their NA truck lines and I would think they will stick to that. Probably a lot of the Wildtrax features will show up in the Tremor though.

56K? Think I will pass.

I agree, as the title of this thread suggests, I’m thinking this might be the closest representation of the NA market Tremor we’ve seen? I’m not suggesting we would get a “Wildtrak X”

Personally I really like it, minus the black trim the comes up from the bash plate and flanks the sides of grill. But since the rest of the truck is spot on, I’d overlook that minor gripe. I just really hope the SuperCrew/longbed configuration will happen and I can get that with a Tremor package. I like this step bumper design better than the current Tremor. Even the roof rack is pretty clever, although I think Subaru has had one like this for awhile. If Ford makes the Tremor close to this, I think a bunch of people will be happy, myself included.

Interesting it has trail turn assist like the Bronco.

The base price seems to be comparable to a 2023 Lariat 501a Tremor (currently ~$50k).

If Ford decided to lock the 2.7l as an "option" behind the Lariat trim (per the leaked engine sticker showing a 2.7l option), that could make a Lariat FX4 or Lariat Tremor a great "in-between" from the base 2.3l to the Raptor in both performance and price.

If a 2.7l Lariat Tremor could come in under $55k and a Raptor might be around the $63k mark, then the Tremor would be an extremely compelling option for a lot of people. Personally I'd love to see a fully loaded 2.7l Lariat FX4 Splash come in under $55k and let everyone else fight over the Tremors and Raptors.

I agree that this is a good representation of our Tremor, although I don't think it will come with the roof racks. Might be an option though.

I don't think they get the FX4 overseas. Anyone know if the standard Wildtrak our FX4?

Personally, if I end up with a Ranger, it'll probably have to be a Lariat. I want all the bells & whistles and the Lariat is probably the only way I'll be able to get that. If the 2.7l is available, I'd be hard pressed not to get a Ranger.
Lariat, 2.7l, FX4, Leveling kit, MT's, a winch.....done.

Looks great! I kinda do want that roof rack with its tonneau cover too.

I need Ford to finally release the information on these Rangers because your numbers are making me sweat. I’m definitely hoping for something a lot closer to $40k than $55-63k. Granted I also don’t want a Tremor or Raptor, but man those are some crazy prices for a midsize truck in my opinion.

Agreed. No way am I paying 50k for a ranger.

For me that will justify to go after market on the suspension. EMU's with BP 51's dampers.

I was basing my guesses off of 2023's fully loaded Lariat non-Tremor prices.

That being said, the cheapest XLT Tremor you could get this year was $45k and $48k for the cheapest Lariat Tremor. If they introduce the 2.7l, it'd be safe to assume there will be a price premium for it (maybe $2.5k?). Coupling that with estimating a ~2% overall price increase for "inflation" and an additional ~2% increase since the interior is receiving a complete overhaul.

I honestly hope I'm completely wrong and pricing stays close to exactly the same. But my brain tells me to personally expect around $55k for a 2.7l Lariat Tremor (with bed liner, tonneau, etc.) if that is offered.

From the way they are jacking up prices on all vehicles across Ford, I wouldn't be surprised at a 63K Raptor. But if that was the case, that might kill it for a lot of people. We are then talking about 70k out the door, minus any packages, accessories, ADMs...

I think they need to think long and hard about this one before they just throw out a sky high number. I said in other posts, I check my local Ford inventory every few days, and they just have multi rows of F150s just sitting. 6-7 are Tremors, and 4 are Raptors. They probably have ADMs, which make them like 85-100k trucks. What normal American can afford that?

I suspect not many could easily afford $85-$100k, especially with interest rates higher. With that said, I can see more people considering midsize trucks. They seem to be $8-12k cheaper for a similar trim spec of a full-size. For most people, I’d guess a midsize truck would meet their truck needs nearly as well as a full size. That’s why I’m replacing my F-150 SuperCrew with either a next generation Ranger or Tacoma.
