Just choose FX2 or FX4 and make it a regular cab and it automatically creates a Tremor.
$38K for FX2 base and $42K for FX4 base as a Tremor

idk...depending on the market, it might be 8-10 grand on the msrp. example: the gt500. I'll take a fX4tw.

I don't think they will have a mark up on the tremor, it isn't that desirable of a truck. Not everybody wants a single cab, and it isn't anything special other than it is a trim level/body configuration that wasn't offered before.

Ya, it just depends on the market. Heck, even for a while the Focus ST was selling for $3,500 over msrp. They've leveled out now.

You should be able to get one for $37K out the door pretty easily I would imagine.

On one hand, you could say it isn't a bad price compared to the 1999 lightning. It's very similar in specs, better in many areas, and costs a good bit less when adjusted for inflation.

On the other hand, the 390 hp hemi ram express is $26k, which admittedly looks like an extremely good value. Then again, its a dodge. So you can get a 380 hp tundra equivalent for $33k. Along these lines, the tremor isn't a great value. But, it will be the only one capable of 425 hp, 570 ftlb, and mid 12's with just a tune, so that will pull some buyers in.

IMO, this truck should have been offered from 2011 as a normal xl or xlt.

If I had a kid hauler for me I would swap the turbos, trade the truck off and have one of these to terrorize the town.
