2 Ford Ranger TREMORS take on a TECHNICAL Colorado Trail

- I’m not usually big on just doing difficult 4x4 trails for no reason other than to just do them but sometimes I think it's necessary. I'm a huge believer in finding out the capabilities of your vehicle and knowing how to drive them well. What’s the point in owning a capable 4x4 if you never test it out?! That's essentially what this video is allll about.
I’ve taken the Ranger on quite a few trails already but this may be the toughest trail to date. Barbour Fork is a great one to test out your vehicle’s capabilities and it’s also conveniently located about 20-30 miles from Denver. I’ve ran this trail before in my FJ so I had an idea of what to expect but I’ve never done The Climb section of the trail. This one is rated hard/difficult on trailsoffroad.com which is my main source of truth when it comes to learning about a trail I plan to tackle. On this day my friend Steve, fellow Tremor owner and adventure pal, head up and set out for a great day putting the trucks through their paces! Body armor, side steps, and hitches were harmed in the making of this video.

Hell yeah brother! Amazing ride out there! Looking forward to some winter Tremor fun.
I took mine through deep sand yesterday and it did great. Glad to know it can do this stuff too. I’m loving this truck.
It's a mean machine!
Awesome trucks. Just got mine a few weeks ago, love it. So many plans, thanks for sharing your video.
mine has a build date of 12/13 I cant wait. 1st thing I am adding is a front facing camera (Wireless Backup Camera for Trucks HD 1080P LeeKooLuu F08) and wire that to one of the switches so I can turn it off and on, some ditch light and possibility some under boy lights . It looks really cool to see what they can do.
I have a 2019 ranger and I’m wanting to get a front facing camera I’ve been thinking the ford emblem on the tailgate is the same size as the one in the grill wondering how hard it would be to wire it up into the radio
@@paulpeters5199 not sure I have seen videos of guys putting other cameras that connect to the front screen but you have to take the dash apart to do that.
Got a 21 Ranger Tremor as well. Was curious how capable these trucks really are. Thanks
Just ordered my tremor today. Liking the content. After watching this video I am really excited to get it and start wheeling with it. Will be out your way in September to do some wheeling. Coming from Ky. Keep up the good work.
If you happen to be around for a Rigs n Coffee I try to go from time to time and would be cool to link up! But thank you. You're going to love it. I say it a lot but it's a very fun truck to drive.

@@GetBusyLivin Hey that would be great would love to do that and maybe we could tackle some trails.
Thnx 4 sharing, nice seeing dogs in smart cap
spend $1200 on some icon progressive leaf packs for the rear totally diff truck the factory leaf springs is crap so much more travel with the icons and they come with an add a leaf for extra payload if you want best upgrade you will do
I did as soon as I got the smartcap :)
Nice SmartCap :)
that was really impressive 😳😳😳
haha thanks. you should see the other video from Flat Tops. It was this x 10 lol. th-cam.com/video/CBO95iyy8C4/w-d-xo.html. And that was not including about half of the other gnarly parts of the trails that we were too busy to record haha
Nice 😎
Making some of those obstacles harder than they need to be by trying to go around them. The only way is through.
Wao i nice adventure by FORD
Nice video, cool fun with the tremor. I noticed a bike rack, I'm looking for a rack for my Treanor to take my bike on offroad trips. What bike rack do you have and how is it working for you?
it's a 1up usa bike rack and probably the best bike rack on the market for off-road use outside of iSi bike rack which are produced in Australia: www.isi-carriers.com/4x4x2/4x4x2_bike-carrier.html. I'm planning to do a full rack review soon! I have been really happy with the 1up
nice.
what kind of a bike rack you have and how did handles on off-roading? thanks
1up USA! I love it th-cam.com/video/EucO-MXzIaY/w-d-xo.html
Got my Tremor a few weeks ago, 120 miles already did the 2" level, 1.5" wheel spacers and crash bars. About to rip the steps off and get rock sliders, they are just annoying me getting in and out.
They are so bad I have thought about getting an angle grinder and cutting them off. Just leaving the straight rail for body protection
@@1986subway You can unbolt just the steps from the rail if you want, I was looking at it the other day.
@@brenden619 thanks I was hoping that was possible. I will check it out
What level kit did you use? How does it ride? Did it level the truck nicely?
Going probably get rid of my dog of a 2023 Tacoma trd off road truck. That A/T 6 speed transmission hunts for gears too frequently driving around on hilly terrain in northeast Tennessee.
Thinking about trading it in on a 2023 ranger xkt tremor off toadmodel truck. I can buy one for about 44,800.00 using my estes express lines x-plan discount buying program with Ford corporation. Might aswell go test drive a ranger fx4 model or just go all out and buy one of these tremor model trucks. Found a regional dealer that has already put a tonneau hard cover and a bed rack on a tremor for 50,400.00. But hopefully can get about 2 grand off that price. So if that Ford dealer will give me 2 to 39 grand for my Tacoma I will go ahead and buy that new 2022 ranger tremor truck.
Then go buy some more aggressive tires for the new truck.
We have lots ononxmap trails in the Appalachian mountains ti go riding on is northeast Tennessee/ western nc/ far southwestern regions of va and over in western nc and in eastern ky. It is good living in northeast Tennessee near the bristol nascar track. Lots of cool places to go overlanding and camp out in the cherokee, pisgha and smokey mountains or Nantahala.
If you do not mind potentially running onto a bigfoot or dogman you can ride all over Daniel Boone national forest in eastern ky or go riding up by bluefield, wv and into mingo and pocahontas counties in Southern wv.
Tremor owner, good video! Curious what the mentioned lift was. Curious what tires and size? Thanks
Tires are stock ones that came with the truck so 32-inch General Grabber A/TX. Only difference are the wheels I added. Those are 8.5 inches wide vs stock at 8inches.
@@GetBusyLivin wow I never would have guessed. Looks like bigger tires. 2” leveling kit?
as soon as he gets any momentum he stops and kills it by pausing.
Good stuff , love seeing rangers in action. Question thou, did yall air down? That may jabe provided alittle more traction? Some don't just for the sheer fact they have no way of airing back up which is understandable. Cheers.
good question. Didn't air down but did have the stuff for it. We were kind of rushing it and it was a shorter trail. To be honest, I usually only air down for longer extended trails. It makes a huge difference but the time and energy spent doing it vs the payoff isn't always there for me personally haha. You're right though, airing down def helps
@@GetBusyLivin the ranger did good doe
Which wheels are those on the Cactus grey one? Are they the Fifteen52 Turbomac HD 6x139.7 ET0 | 6x5.5" | BS 4.75'' ? Just confirming because I've been looking at them for mine and the fitment looks perfect.
Hey Afshin, copied directly from my receipt at Discount Tire:
FIFTEEN52
FIF TRAVERSE HD 106.20
17 X8.5 6-139.70 0 BZMTBA
Be advised that even without a tire upgrade, it introduced rubbing and still does. You'll have to remove some plastic guards and eventually the crash bars if you want to remove that entirely
@@GetBusyLivin good to know, thanks!
Traction control on or off?
Throughout most of the vid I had it in 4lo with rear lockers engaged and ya traction control on
What trail was this ?
It’s called Barbour Fork out in Idaho Springs. Great trail for testing out a vehicle. These guys do a great job of showing each obstacle and what to expect for the entirety of the trail
th-cam.com/video/rc6RZdgbqw0/w-d-xo.html
What size tire do you have?
th-cam.com/video/EucO-MXzIaY/w-d-xo.html 1Up USA. It's awesome! This was with the 2 rack on there as well so pretty crazy clearance even with the 2 rack system
This was not a hard trail at all. You took all the easy lines. Half that I'd take my wife's Bronco sport through. I got a 21 Tremor also and take it through way worse than this. Don't baby and embarrass the Tremor this way
lol would love to see that
@@GetBusyLivin Have to hit you guys up. My cousins wanna run up there sometime
