Yikes, my dealer has two Ranger Tremors in

[Old Guy]

Nothing like wrestling with whether the Bronco best fits my needs, and then see these two are on the lot. Fighting the urge to go see them, as it may mean I buy one!

Keep telling myself, unless something changes, Bronco should be here by end of July, unless I get a delay email.

Anyone look at the Ranger Tremors in person?

What do you think of them? I haven't seen one in person. Any pics?

Have you watched Doug DeMuro's video on the Tremor?

I think it's a cool looking truck but the capability isn't really all the way there. Stick with the Bronco

The next-gen Ranger, especially if they offer something Squatch inspired, could potentially get me to flip away from the Bronco. The current gen and its lack of a V6 doesn't do it for me.

I watched this video. Never was really interested in the Rangers not my cup fo tea. However this version doesn’t seem very impressive. It’s definitely no Raptor version. I’d wait for the Bronco.

Get both, sell the one you like less!

The difference for me is it tows and has payload with much better than average off road performance. The only head to head test I have seen it loose was against the new GM compact with front and rear lockers. I remain stuck between a rock and a hard place with the utility side of the Bronco. My son has agreed to loan me his Ranger in occasion to tow the boat to and from the barn

I wouldn't sacrifice a bronco for a tremor NO EFFING WAY

Yes, it just to close to the Ranger update to buy now. I would wait to see what the new one looks like and what it offers. If they offer a lift and bigger tires with a better front end and grille, that would have my attention.

Ive seen a couple. Still a boring little truck, with bigger tires.

That's where I am at also. I have been struggling with the "utility" of the Bronco for a while now. For me, I think they did a great job on the Bronco, so it has never been that the Bronco lacks, but what do I need really. While I can always rent or borrow a truck for some need, its handy having it there all the time. Decisions, decisions.

As far as capable, it would be plenty capable off road. I am realistic about my uses of either vehicle and either one gets the off road job done I would do. My Wrangler and F150 never let me down in what I did, or the deep snow I was in.

If they had a back seat that when folded would make more room for big dogs but none do that. The rear seat room for passangers is poor. Not that it matters much, but an I-4 has 5 main bearings and a V6 has 4. The 2.3 would probably just be OK for power. The 2.7 would be great.

I'd cancel if it was a ranger raptor. But there's no real solid news that one is even coming here anytime soon

It’s so boring compared to a Bronco!
It really just looks like a late 90s early 2000s F150- rounded Kinda of like a blown up 90’s Taurus.
If it drove by me on the road I probably wouldn’t even notice it.

Well, it’s actually got several nice upgrades, including a lift and Fox 2.0 Shocks. It does pretty well head to head against just about everything in its class and the power to weight is about dead even with a Coyote Crew Cab F150 4x4 or the equivalent V8 full size from Dodge or Chevy. It is very conservative looking, but that’s not a concern for me personally. It also smokes everything but the GM Diesel compact pickup in towing and payload, which is what I will miss with my Bronco.
