What Changed in 2024 for the 2024 Ford F-150 Tremor?
The Ford F-150 Tremor can plow down any trail with equal confidence to the Raptor, despite it being a less rugged mode. In ‘24, its suspension system was revised with off-road springs and stronger front hubs and upper control arms. Its ground clearance is higher by an inch, thanks to its 18-inches wheels inside 33-inch General Grabber all-terrain tires. Added to this rough and ready picture are Bash plates for more protection from whatever you might encounter on rough terrain.
Inside, the Tremor’s new features include a 12.0-inch infotainment touchscreen system with SYNC 4 infotainment software Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a fully digital instrument panel. Updates to BlueCruise with automatic lane changes and repositioning and an SVS (Stolen Vehicle Services) system are also standard. Finally, all trim levels now include LED lighting.

Let’s talk off-roading. The Tremor’s standard hill-start assist and hill-descent control offer more support on steep terrain. And let’s not forget about its selectable driving modes that will get you through any rough trail—Normal, Eco, Sport, Tow-Haul, Slippery, Deep Snow/Sand, Mud/Rut, and Rock Crawl. Should you get stuck, the truck also features two front tow hooks.
