Off-Road: Tremor
If you genuinely use off-road capability, the Tremor Off-Road Package is the one. For 2027 it opened up to all five trims, and it’s a true performance build — 35-inch off-road tires, an electronic-locking rear differential, a front limited-slip differential, performance shocks, raised ride height, skid plates, water fording vent tubes, and Rock Crawl, Trail Control, and Trail Turn Assist drive modes. It requires 4x4 and a Crew Cab and is single-rear-wheel only. Read the full Tremor guide →
Appearance: Black, STX, Carhartt, Proud to Honor
These packages are about looks and styling rather than added capability — though several bundle in genuinely useful hardware.
Black Appearance Package — a factory blackout treatment with 20-inch Ebony Black gloss wheels, black running boards, body-color bumpers, a black grille surround, and a Tough Bed liner. Available on XLT and Lariat, single-rear-wheel, requiring 4x4 and the XLT Premium Package. Read the full Black Appearance guide →
STX Appearance Package — dresses up the work-truck XL with body-color bumpers, a painted grille, LED lighting, dark gray wheels, full carpet, and an STX fender badge. The most affordable way to get a sharp-looking Super Duty, and the required gateway to building a Tremor on the XL. Read the full STX guide →
Super Duty Carhartt — the first-ever Ford x Carhartt collaboration, bringing authentic Carhartt-inspired styling inside and out with work-ready hardware. A Crew Cab, 4x4, single-rear-wheel build. Read the full Carhartt guide →
Proud to Honor Package — a limited-edition Ford Custom Garage appearance package with a red, white, and blue flag graphic and black forged aluminum wheels, available on F-250 and F-350 single-rear-wheel trucks and backed by a supplemental warranty. Read the full Proud to Honor guide →
Key Takeaways
- Tremor is the off-road build — the only package that changes how the truck performs off-pavement.
- Black Appearance, STX, Carhartt, and Proud to Honor are styling packages, each for a different look and trim level.
- King Ranch and Platinum are the top luxury trims; the Lariat Premium/Ultimate packages bring much of that to the Lariat for less.
- Every package has its own availability rules — we can confirm what’s buildable for your configuration.
Luxury: King Ranch, Platinum, and Lariat Packages
For comfort, technology, and premium materials, three paths sit at the top of the lineup.
King Ranch — Western luxury with unique Kingsville Antique Affect leather, chrome, two-tone paint, woodgrain accents, and signature badging. 4x4 standard. Read the full King Ranch guide →
Platinum / Platinum Plus — modern, monochromatic flagship luxury, with the available Platinum Plus Package adding unique Smoked Truffle Venetian leather, satin chrome, and premium ownership perks (Platinum Plus requires the diesel). Read the full Platinum guide →
Lariat Premium / Ultimate Packages — the smart-value path: add top-tier technology, trailering aids, B&O Unleashed audio, and a Head-Up Display to the Lariat while keeping its cleaner, understated styling. Read the full Lariat packages guide →
How to Choose the Right One
The quickest way to narrow it down is to start with what you want the truck to do:
- You want serious off-road capability → Tremor. It’s the only package that genuinely changes off-pavement performance.
- You want a bold, blacked-out look → Black Appearance (XLT or Lariat).
- You want an affordable truck that still looks sharp → STX on the XL.
- You want work-truck style with personality → Carhartt.
- You want a patriotic, limited-edition statement → Proud to Honor.
- You want premium features at the best value → a Lariat with the Premium and Ultimate packages.
- You want Western-luxury character → King Ranch.
- You want modern top-tier luxury → Platinum, or Platinum Plus for the highest level.
And remember — some of these can combine. You can build a King Ranch with the Tremor package, or a Lariat with both Black Appearance styling and the premium tech packages. If you’re not sure how to mix them, that’s exactly the kind of thing we sort out with you on a quick call. For the full model-year picture, start with our 2027 Super Duty overview.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which 2027 Super Duty package is best for off-road?
The Tremor Off-Road Package. It’s the only one that changes off-pavement performance — 35-inch tires, locking and limited-slip differentials, raised ride height, skid plates, water fording vent tubes, and off-road drive modes. The FX4 Off-Road Package is a lighter-touch alternative available more widely.
What’s the difference between the appearance packages?
Black Appearance is a blacked-out look on XLT and Lariat. STX dresses up the work-truck XL affordably. Carhartt is a work-style collaboration on the XLT Crew Cab. Proud to Honor is a patriotic limited-edition graphics package on F-250/F-350. Each targets a different look and trim level.
Should I get a King Ranch, a Platinum, or a loaded Lariat?
King Ranch is Western luxury with unique leather and two-tone paint. Platinum is modern, monochromatic flagship luxury. A Lariat with the Premium and Ultimate packages gets much of the top-trim technology and audio at better value with understated styling. It comes down to the character and budget you want.
Can I combine packages, like Tremor on a King Ranch?
In many cases, yes. The Tremor package can be built on trims including King Ranch and Platinum, and styling and tech packages can often be combined. Each package has its own requirements and restrictions, so we’ll confirm exactly what works together for your build.
