The steerable headlights are actually useful on trails at night, the B&O sound system is pretty darn good, and the auto dimming rear view mirrors are really good for older eyes at night, and on a very hot day in FL the cooled seats are awesome. SO I had to go with the 402A.

"Entry" vs. "Loaded" differences: Projector headlamps Painted side mirror caps LED tail lamps Perforated leather seats with Tremor logo & stitching Heated rear seats 3-position memory driver seat B&O sound system Power steering wheel adjustment Full digital dash display Ventilated front seats 4-wheel Auto drive mode Heated steering wheel Storage cover for forward center console area Folding center workbench Panoramic sunroof I'd probably go with the 402A because I'd miss those ventilated seats & sunroof in the summer and heated steering wheel & 4-Auto in the winter.

401A package is an off-road optioned out XLT, the 402A is an off-road configured 502A Lariat. Living in the snowy northland, I'd select the 402A for the 4A 4-wheel drive option for driving on snow compacted roads in the winter. I actually selected a 502A Lariat FX4 in the PowerBoost configuration which puts it in the same price range as the 402A Tremor. My 5% off-road driving is not aggressive off-road so I didn't need a Tremor. The number of ways an F-150 can be configured is truly impressive.

I just got a 2021 Tremor 402A pkg, and I love it . Personal preference but I think the extra cost is worth it... besides all the niceties-like the leather seats and stitching/piping. I also think of the reasale value which is also a factor when buying a vehicle. just my opinion and my choice of picks....good job on the video too.

Taking delivery of my 402A and then some Velocity Blue in about 2 weeks. The added luxury was key for me. I am at the stage in my life both in mindset and financially that I like to treat myself to the nicer things. Coming from a 2018 4Runner TRD OR (which I absolutely LOVE and will miss) I am looking forward to all of the bells and whistles. Living in AZ those ventilated seats are going to get used a LOT from May to October. The heated front and rear seats will see a lot of use during our winter months after spending a day in the mountains in the snow or running creeks and rivers in my WW kayak and that may make me the designated post-run shuttle driver for my group. Having a wife who is 10" shorter than I am those memory seats are going to save me having knee replacement for all the times she forgets to move the seat back after she uses my vehicle. The plan for me is that this will be a 10-12 year vehicle and my dealer was willing to honor X Plan pricing so I was willing to drop the extra $$.

I’ve had trouble with the screen myself when trying to do a delivery for my customers. Thanks for the info. Great job!

Fire Ford for the 3,4,5 different headlight options. Every truck made, entry level through limited should have the best headlights in them.

Great job Ben! Love your videos.

Missed the rain sensing wipers, power folding mirrors and garage integrated garage door opener on the 402a... Pretty good overview tho. I'm a 402A guys...gotta have the ventilated seats . No one likes swamp ass. lol

To be honest, the cheaper 401A is more worth it then just the expensive package. Engine and towing capacity are like super important to trucks and they both are really similar in Engines but the cheaper tremor has more towing capacity. The only thing that’s different from the 2 trucks are the interiors, like the seats are good and the 12 inch screen is good too. Just some small changes on the 402A package. But I think the cheaper 401A is a better value to get. I agree with you Ben!

Shopping these trucks against a Trail Boss right now. Thanks for the great video! If the 401A had the Auto 4wd I'd order it for sure.

Everyone liking the 402A but I’m over here just wanting a 400 base 😂

Very very very useful review ! Thank you man !

I’m love the way you did the comparison. Greetings from 🇶🇦

i personally do not like the digital gauges. i am old school give me a needle on a static display and i'm happy.

Excellent review and I agree with your assessment.

great comparison. Major differences I noticed, seats, sound system, and transfer case. Cloth in 401A may reduce need for ventilation. but the better, sound system and transfer case in 402A make it a difficult decision. But I agree with your conclusion, 401A better value.

This is why I can't justify buying a new truck. My '12 FX4 has more options and was half the price when new. Smh. I'll continue to drive mine until it won't. And then I'll try to find a '14 FX4.

Great work.

The 4A setting is a must in a snowy climate IMO.

The 2 I'm considering. Thanks

Good review, For me, it's 402A all the way. There are so many little differences that the extra price is worth it to me. This is like comparing an XLT to a Lariat. The 402A has a much nicer interior and that one has the B & O Unleashed audio system that I think isn't even available on the 401A. Also, the full gauges and ventilated seats and work surface also not available on 401A.

I would might go for the higher trim just to get the Auto 4wd and the work surface center console, though typically I prefer lesser loaded lighter optioned trucks, they just ride better and last longer trouble free...

I like the 402av, but the paint on the right is amazing

My dad just got one a ‘23 model with a v8 and it sounds so well!

I drive a 14’ Lariat and it has the cooled seats and the 4A mode both of which I use all the time. I would suck up the extra cost of the 402A for sure!

Going from a 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer to a F150 Tremor with the 402a package. Looking forward to it!

Toss up between the two packages. Yes big price difference between two packages. Excluding sun roof the 402a package has the extra comfort features, especially cooled seats. My choice 402a package.

I think he was probably comparing 2021 models here, but my 2022 401A does have the work surface, and I know the B&O option was also available for $600 if you had to have it. 401A has the heated, but no ventilated seats. Honestly, that was the only option that I miss, but it certainly wasn't worth the price difference to me. I actually prefer the leather/cloth sport seats on the 401A... I'm not a fan of leather seating in the middle summer OR winter. The cloth centers look great and are way more comfortable in my opinion. I really couldn't justify the added cost for the higher package.

Not pointed out but the headlights on the 402A are the dynamic bending lights, where the 401A is just basic LED lights.

Nice comparison...

i I HOPE, that since the tremor has the blacked out Ford logo that MAYBE that is a hing that the 22’s F150 will bring back that black appearance package option.

402a wins for me. Pano sunroom, ultimate premium sound system, auto 4x4, digital display and those gorgeous seats! Take my money.

Ben my boss is getting me a tremor cause I’ve been a good boy 😍 bricked up rn

Almost $2k of that price difference is the roof, which is not standard on the 402a. It is an extra.

I have a question, can the tailgates of both trucks be powered up and down? Thanks!

Great video Ben. 4Auto is a HUGE deal for me, that's why I'd go for 402A. I don't understand why they're not doing "AWD" it for the XLT, that's a foolish/cheap choice IMO. Otherwise, I'd go for 401A. By the way, what are the markups in your area... 7-10k in DFW, which is a no go for me.

What’s the Torsen diff’s gear ratio on the tremor?(4.10 or 3.73) Does the rear diff ratio match the Torsen front diff? (4.10 front and 3.73 rear will cause binding) How well does Torsen diff work on a Tremor?

Do they both have lane centering cuz thats a must have option for me since i’m driving on highways a lot

Think the biggest thing for me is the seats - the camo cloth is an absolute deal breaker for me. Just can't do it. Truck is amazing, though.

Should put more emphasis on the much DIFFERENT powertrain. The auto transfer case is a always used BIG difference. Deserves more detail than the Tremor stickers being the same.

Nice to see a comparison but you missed something - you did not cover the driver assist controls - does the more expensive one have blind side warning and adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist while the cheap does not or do they both have them? Those really make the difference to me.

...Yup, another $90K 1/2 ton Truck I could never afford !! Thanx Ford !!

I like to see the 400A package. For someone who want more functional and less bells and whistles.

Ben why does the Less expensive Tremor (White) 401A have front sensors and the more Expensive (Blue) 402A Not have them?

Are you able to add the sun roof to the 401a??

Neither. In the f150 I want super cab with 6ft bed, a v8, and no fold down shifter

I bought the 401A cause I loved the interior. Sound system is something I always change. The one thing I wish it had…. Heated steering wheel.

What’s the difference between the 400a and the 401a?

Thumbs Down dude! You mentioned some of the costliest upgrades on the higher end one like they weren't a big deal then go and say the other one is a better value. If those features, like the sound system, way better seats, heated rear seats, etc. really are something people want, then the extra cost is very much justified. Me personally? If I'm going to drop close to $70k on a truck, I'm getting all the bells and whistles. The 402A also gives you many upgrades that aren't specifically listed when you click on the two different options. The upgrades with the High package include: Tow Technology Package, Ford Co-Pilot Assist 2.0, BoxLink, Power Sliding Rear Window, 360 degree cameras, Active Park Assist, Integrated Trailer Brake Controller, Wireless Charging Pad, LED Projector with light bending headlamps, LED tail lamps, unique leather trimmed seats, and the 12" productivity screen. Many of the things on this list are extremely useful and were an easy justification for the increased cost.

what is cause of differnce in towing capacity?? all i would think would be axle ratio!

Cool 🇺🇸 flag etched into the side of the front vents. Can see it when you open the doors. Good touch Ford!

Is this truck about the size of a f150 or smaller? Looking to get a truck for my 6’7 self lol and need leg room and a good backseat for my daughter to ride in a booster seat.

are they both power folding side mirror?

Awesome video. This video help me decide on my order. I just placed an order at my MN ford dealer for the 401A 2022 F150 Tremor w/front torsen diff, Antimatter blue. The projector bulbs though in the 402A is just awesome, but not workth the 8k upgrade with all the other ammenities. Ill trade in the tried and true 2019 F150 2.7. It probably will be late spring/early summer 2022 before I see this truck, but looking forward to it!

If this truck had a V8 I’d buy it today.

Still cheaping out on leaving out LEDs on the expensive trims even though it's a "base" it's still a Tremor. And the biggest annoyance is how they still charge extra for the wheel well liners. Expensive as crap and they still don't finish building it.

Folks don’t be misled. The 402A package is a better deal. The biggest thing missed in the review is that the 402A has the Raptor transfer case, whereas the 401A does not. This is why the 402A has an AWD and the 401A does not. This is a huge difference for ON-ROAD driving as the Raptor transfer case uses a Torque on Demand (TOD) system when in 4A and a Hi-Lock mechanics instead of a clutch when in 4H and 4L. The TOD 4A system is much much better in rain, mud, and snow on the pavement than the standard system in the 400A and 401A package. I don’t know how much this costs but I’ll bet the price difference is largely based on this. Ben love your reviews, but if you catch this comment, keep it mind going forward. It’s a big deal.

Is the moonroof in the 402A or you gotta add it?

What about the gas tank? They offer a 36gal tank on the trucks as well.

Ben, Aren't the LED headlights on the 401(A) more powerful than the projector headlights on the 402 (A)?

Just recently bought a 2023 401a in gray metallic. Honestly unless you really need the extra features the 401a will be your better choice. Luckily mine came with the moon roof already as an option. Like the video showed the details for the upcharge really are the headlights, taillights and the interior. Not worth imo.

Great video...just ask one thing. Slow down when you change views - I'm getting car sick!!!! Thanks!!!

For me personally the 402a is the beteer option. I have a 2023 402a and i love it. I especially love the dynamic bending headlights. Also the Torsen front end works with 4 auto so thats pretty sweet.

If you are shopping for this kind of truck check out the F-150 Rocky Ridge edition $67k

Yes

I'll take both, there so nice. Forget the other copy cats. Ford always has to stay ahead of the competition.

I feel like if I don’t stick with my raptor that this will be my next trucj

What’s the payload for each?

Seems as if the 401a is very similar to the 302a XLT, and the 402a is similar to the 502a Lariat

Wonder if you could get the 402 for the 401 price if you came with cash in full…

only thing big is the full leather seats. If I am able to upgrade the seat only I will go for that

some of these options arent distinctive of the higher trim, they are just addons that they chose to not put on the 401a, but anyone else could if they ordered one. example, the interior work surface

I’ve yet to see one of these in a color I didn’t like. It’d be a hard choice…

I'll never not get 4A again, it's just too nice for slick roads.

Always buy a vehicle fully loaded unless it is a work vehicle and will be worked hard and never washed.

People always talk about HP, they never start with 0-6 or 1/2 mile stats. HP means ZERO if you can’t go fast, a semi has a 1000 HP and so what… it’s about speed

No mention of it in the video but do both packages come with the Torsen limited slip front differential?

Amazes me that these 60k+ trucks don't come with factory bed liners! 😂 Beautiful trucks though.

Can you get the 402 without the panoramic roof? I want that package but don't need that roof

I thought the 2021 did not come with 12 screens

402A without question, much nicer

What's the price on this

Rear recovery hooks should be gold as well Ford blew that!

So wierd. I got the 402 tremor but I didn’t get the fold out work bench center council armrest. Lame.

60k+ trucks and Ford cant even add wheel fender liners?🤦

402A for me, I gotta have ventilated seats 😂

Missing a SC 5.0

I have a poor man’s 2016 f150 and would love to upgrade to one of these. I just don’t think my truck has any value for a trade in for one of these

Looks like those touch screens are glitchy!

Is the rebel better then the tremor im so Indecisive??i was hoping you could help me out with that.

Only if it had a coyote

You did not mention some of the available tech that comes with the truck that makes it worth it. Does the 1A or 2A have adaptive cruise control? That is a $500-800 option that is ABSOLUTLY essential. Things like that add up. I once drove from Midland Texas to El Paso Texas and only touched my brakes 3 times because of the adaptive cruise control.

There both the same Ben used the white one two tow MORE COMPARRISONS

People drove with a column shifter for years ..... the fold down shifter is just a big waste of money and design from Ford ...... you can have the flip down work area .... with a normal column shifter ..... and then you get more storage for your phone ...... these trucks should have power folding mirrors ............. 40 k Rams have power folding mirrors and a power sliding rear window !

Interesting video but, you talk so fast that for me, I missed a good what you said. I could make a list of items you missed that come in the upper-end package but, that would be very long. I would suggest that anyone considering a new Tremor and is on the fence as to which package to purchase needs to do their own research.

I would go for the 402A package. 11:29

i just wish it had the 6.5ft bed.....

Neither one is a the best value because neither is a VALUE. They are too expensive and no lease option, ridiculous.

I rather have a 401a Ford out did there self built these trucks
