Can one order the performance up grade to the Tremor that you can now order for the Ranger in after market? This Ranger is just the coolest truck. Although I am a bit disappointed about the Lariat trim on the Ranger versus the F 150 lots of options are missing. Well he answered my questions

The F150 Tremor was getting 18.5 mpg with the 4:10 axel. The 3:73 and 10 speed is a much better combo. My old tremor would wheel hop under heavy acceleration and developed the timing chain shutter at 89k miles.

The ranger has a much nicer setup for a really similar price (I'm talking about what comes in the package) Could ford not do better than work truck wheels with a crappy black paintjob? The goodyears suck and so do the shocks. It would also be nice to have the seat stitching in the SD tremor. I love the idea for the tremor but execution wasn't that good. Where is my winch btw? Its been 10 months since I got the truck and still no winch.
