Do you remember the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears? In the story, everything in the middle was ideal for Goldilocks. The same is true for the 2023 Ford F-150 Tremor. This half-ton truck isn’t just an off-road package like the FX4, and it’s not a hardcore off-roader like the Raptor. Instead, the F-150 Tremor falls somewhere in the middle to give you the right 2023 Ford truck to drive.

What will you find when you drive the 2023 Ford F-150 Tremor?

The Tremor is a Ford pickup off-road trim that gives you the trail-riding gear you need without going to the Raptor’s high cost and wait time. You’ll find a SuperCrew cab, standard 4WD, and a 5.0-liter V8 engine for the 2023 model. If you want the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, it’s available for the Tremor.

This Ford half-ton pickup truck gives you selectable driving modes with Deep Snow/Sand, Mud/Rut, and Rock Crawl settings. The Tremor has tough skid plates to protect the underside while on the trails. The ride height of this truck improves the off-road angles compared to the standard Ford F-150.

The Tremor’s suspension makes it an off-road beast. The suspension receives:

• Improved front knuckles and control arms
