2014 Ford F-150 Tremor vs Tacoma

Here's an announcement of the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor due at dealers this Fall.
Will be interesting to see how this model competes with the Tacoma.

if i had the funds, i would love to have a truck like that! talk about a fun street truck! some upgrades and be close to 450hp/550tq. FUN

 

It sounds cool but I wish ford would bring back the ranger with the ecoboost engine

 

Nice truck though not really in the same segment as the Tacoma. Those are some nice numbers for a V6. Nothing about mpg though but I bet it would be the same if not better than what a V6 tacoma is getting.

 

From what I gather its a fullsize with the reg cab and short bed. I'm not feeling it is going to do any direct competition with anyone looking for a Tacoma. Just my thought.

 

Apples too oranges. Nice truck though.

 

x2

x2. But mine gets 22 ish on the highway and it's a crew cab EB so I would imagine this 2wd reg cab would get more, it would just be a fun street truck to drive.

 

Performance will be great but still looks like an F-150 to me.

Raptor is nice too but way overpriced!

 

Almost looks like a new and improved version of the old f150 svt lighting.

 

Cool truck.... But... Won't work for me since I need 4 doors.

 

one problem... its a ford. Do you really think you are going to get the same reliability and resale value as a Tacoma?

 

Meh, I don't think $43k is terrible. Especially with the Baja Tacoma going for upper 30's.

This is a cool truck though, but as mentioned not anymore of a competitor to the Taco than any other F150.

 

if i wanted a fast truck i would buy an srt10 used.

can be had for 20k all day with 505hp crank

 

Owned one FORD (not a truck) years ago. Don't ever see that happening again. My friends who drive Fords have always liked my Toyotas.

 

Lt that shit!

 

Wow thats a nice looking truck !



Engine sounds to technical to me, im sure it will have some issues for the first few years. I just dont see it having tacoma reliability . But only time will tell

 

If it had the ol' 300 straight 6, it would be great. Since it doesn't, I don't like it

 

It's still a Ford. Ever drive a ford truck after 75K to 100K miles? Much less try to get some resale out of it?

 

It's not a new engine.

 

Guess Im not up on my ford knowledge , how long has the eco boost 3.5 been available?

And most importantly hows the reliability ?
