Ford full-size pickup truck buyers are a loyal bunch. That’s one reason the Ford F-150 rings in annually as the best selling truck in America. But the F-150 also provides what full-size pickup truck owners want: choice. Different pick-up bed sizes, V8 and V6 engines, and roominess via regular cab, SuperCab and SuperCrew models. The F-150 offers an array of trim grades, from the base (XL) to the performance-minded, new-for-2014 Tremor trim. Tremor is the lone regular cab F-150 offering bucket seats and a flow-through center console. F-150 Tremor’s interior cues include red piping on the seats, red-stitching on the steering wheel, and brushed metal accents.

The test driven F-150 Tremor’s standard 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine kicked out 365 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 420 pounds-feet of torque at 2500 rpm. (This engine serves up 90% of peak torque between 1700-5000 rpm.) The F-150 Tremor can handle towing and hauling chores with its standard 4.10 rear axle and electric locking rear differential. But this street savvy truck also harbors ample pep for expressway driving. The 126-inch wheelbase Ford F-150 4X2 regular cab with EcoBoost V6 and 6-speed automatic transmission carries a suggested price of $34,270 and collects estimated mpg of 16 city and 22 highway.
